Currently new citations are being noted, but not actively reviewed, via the "Alaveteli Professional Weekly Review" document and the fortnightly "Transparency programme sprint planning" call.

If we had a public list of new citations (mysociety/alaveteli#6701) that might enable, and prompt. us to moderate them and/or prompt people to report issues with them.

There is some level of misuse of the feature, some of which may have arisen from a misunderstanding of its intent.

Do we want to proactively or reactively moderate citations?
Do we need tools ("report this" links) to encourage reports?

As this is a new feature and we're intending to give prominence to cited requests some degree of proactive moderation (but still retrospective moderation) might be appropriate.

These get pulled out of the system and looked at on a fortnightly basis as part of sprint planning, so any misuse is likely to be noticed in that way.
