Hi #Friendica people,
I've started a design document for the upcoming moderation pages that come with adding support for moderation reports by @Michael Vogel . However, I need your help. I'm notoriously bad at keeping focused on writing such a document even if I recognize its usefulness to do things once and do them right.
So please add/edit what you think is missing/incorrect in this CryptPad file hosted by the ever-gracious @Tio

I'm not sure if it's related to this document (as it seems to me like it is focused on reporting only, not the moderation itself), but somehow i find it important to mention - what will be actual moderation options (and what activitypub and related implementations allows to do).
Just an ideas to consider, you may also don't care at all, feel free to ignore 😀
@Schmaker Thanks, these suggestions are valuable, this was gong to be my next design avenue after handling reports.
As a aside, “ Block user for everyone but his followers on my instance” is already available as a console command named “silence-something” (I’m on my phone, will confirm later).

. There's no local alternative but there probably should be.@Hypolite Petovan I don't get the context, it is not clear what this reply is for.
global silence allows to silence local accounts locally too, I use that for some nsfw accounts that signed up on my server. Silencing them will not show the posts in the community (local timeline), which sometimes then shows an empty page in the community, as it will simply not show the post, but count the not shown posts as posts, so pages will be empty.
@Andy H3 Thanks! In my experience, making a free form text box required will not make people who did not intend on adding meaningful information suddenly do so.
I know it’s true at least for the “Signup reasons” field Mastodon provides for registration by approval.
