I think something more useful could be done with the above two flags than simply subtracting points, without greatly increasing moderator load. I notice this most often with Poorly Tagged, where it's usually the case of a missing tag, such as "rant" or "satire."

Some examples:

  • When Poorly Tagged is chosen, offer a pop-up list of possible tags with the current ones preselected. If X number of users in Y time choose the same set of tags (again, adding "rant", for example), update the tags.
  • If a user editorializes a title (not unusual), offer a text box when choosing Poorly Titled. If X users copy-paste the exact same title, presumably from the article, update the title.

Obviously it would be possible to game these if someone really wanted to deface a title with 10 shadow accounts, but it seemed like a good start.

start on automated story title and tagging suggestions
Rather than keep "poorly titled" and "poorly tagged" as reasons for
flagging, make the user do the work of suggesting new ones.

At some point, suggested taggings will flip to real taggings once
they reach a certain count (to be determined later).  This also has
to take into account tagging sets that don't contain current tags,
for when they need to be removed.

For titles, I'm not yet sure how to handle this in an automated
fashion except for the (probably rare) case of multiple users
submitting the same exact thing, but at least collect them for now.

The 'suggest' functionality is there now, but it needs the automated actions hooked up.

I think it should log a Moderation record when doing tag changes.

implement automatic tag changing in response to user suggestions
Right now it's just a simple check for SUGGESTION_QUORUM (currently
4) number of users agreeing on a set of new tags.

Log a moderation to the story submitter when this happens, and allow
moderations to be done by a non-specific user.

Some minor tweaks may be necessary to the quorum size but I think this is more or less implemented.
