Report content feature
There have been many discussions in the PHP community about "curating" our sources. Not all sources follow new paradigms and have great content, this is where PHP The Right Way came from, an attempt to curate a list of good information to fight some of the articles from the PHP4 era and similar sources.
In order to be able to judge if the sources in PlanetPHP ate up to the standards we all come to expect, it would be nice to implement a "report" button. Something that allows the users to express their opinion about a source, allowing the admins to make decisions on which sources should be dropped or not.
I would suggest some discussion to determine a transparent criteria and the implementation of the button with a flag system that allows admins to manage the results.
I'm willing to put in the work to solve this if we can all agree on what this should look/work like.
+1 to this. This also could be useful when someone's PHP blog veers off into non-PHP land (or turns into more of a marketing pitch).
Since there is currently no "admin" console, I would maybe suggest this be an open and transparent leaderboard anyone can view, and the admin continue managing the blog list as they do, but with this as information.
@chregu can you read through and give me some feedback on the implementation details, i'll set some time aside to code it.
My personal opinion would be:
- implement report button
- public page that shows filed reports anonymized
- admins then use the current means (DB) for removing offenders
How does this sound to you and the Planet Team? No need to add authenticated pages since that concept does not yet exist in the app, but it does require buy-in from admins to check page and execute on feedback.
