QA (public)

Motivation¶

@mkittler removed himself from the moderation list in https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/qa/wiki/Tools/525/diff meaning if livdywan and okurz are not available there will be guaranteed awkward silence. What should we do?

• AC1: One or multiple of the suggestions have been discussed and implemented or are reflected in follow-up tickets

Suggestions¶

• Consider the "weekly moderation duty" we had
  • Rotate the list of moderators by priority explicitly (rather than asking)
  • Clarify how the duty works. Maybe that was not clear in the first place
  • Make the list a specific "fallback" list
  • Mention the current priority in the Slack topic (otherwise nobody will remember)
• Lead a conversation on Slack or a call to find out how people feel about moderation in general
• Ask what prompted the change of mind
• Clarify if the list of moderators stops others from taking over
• Collect moderation points. Once you achieve 10 points you win a "next" ticket
  • okurz suggests to consider that some people like moderation more, some less
• Practice moderation to make it easier
  • Remember to give people feedback so they can learn
• Add something to the docs, like key phrases to use or best practice e.g. letting others speak first
