Editors can only remove an entire blog. It would be easier if the software allowed the existing editors to remove a single blog post. Let's be honest too : there are a bunch of people which used to be active GNOME members, who changed their focus to other projects and are still in Planet GNOME for no reason. Maybe PGO editors should start cleaning the old cruft (no offense intended).. But I find it interesting to know, say, what Miguel is up to these days.

If this is a concern that many have, maybe it would be simple enough to send an annual reminder to people that are aggregated on Planet GNOME to let them know that they are on Planet GNOME, why they are there (they are part of the GNOME community), what the code of conduct is and let them know how they can remove their blog.

The more I think about the issues raised in this thread, the more I believe a voting system (similar to what maemo is doing perhaps) may be all we need. Say, any viewer of p.g.o can vote a post +1 or -1. Then we can gather two metrics per poster: 1) how impactful his/her posts are (avg / median / max number of votes). 2) how interested are readers in his/her posts (avg / median / min/max score. We can then have threshold to hide / collapse unpopular posts. That part can even be done using JavaScript and you can the threshold on the page and more posts will collapse/uncollapse... Really ? Most people read posts in Google reader (offline) and may not even be interested to vote for every author. -- Sankar P http://psankar.blogspot.com ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

The intent of the (rhetorical ?) question was to bring forth the fact that we are discussing solutions of myriad variety without looking at whether it can be solved non-programmatically. Hence, the question. The immediate question I was responding to was whethere/how blog posts of people not involved with GNOME anymore / not part of the GNOME community should be removed from PGO. I think what I proposed is an adequate solution to that. Sure it doesn't fix many other problems raised in the thread. behdad ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
