I also have had what I still believe were actually quite useful
comments deleted :-(

And none of the reasoning in the stock form email applied, imho.

It's an awfully long stretch or a very thin line between these:
"Feature Request: Documentation"
"User Contrbuted Note"

I mean, the BEST "User Contributed Notes" probably qualify as Feature
Requests to improve the Docs, no?

Seems like those are the ones getting nuked, sometimes.

Oh well.

[shrug]

Better than the alternative of having a lot of utter [bleep] in the
User Contributed sections, I guess.

Still, maybe an "appeal" or a reader-voting system would make more
sense than a PHP Dev/Doc Team member copy-editing every note...

Obviously you'd still want a Doc Team member stepping in at some point
and just nuking anything blatantly "wrong" no matter how popular...
