Use a flag to guide review, not to silence someone without context.

For authorized work involving public comments, tentative spam or safety flags, and proposed moderation actions, prepare a moderation queue with the original comment, reason for a possible flag, and relevant policy text. Classification can miss context, dialect, satire, or threats and may unfairly restrict speech. Apply a published policy consistently, protect reporter and commenter data, preserve evidence for appeals, route credible threats to trained moderators, and require a human to approve removal, restriction, or escalation. Explain data use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.
