@jakfrost I agree tooling is important, but since the Moderator Guidelines is a huge task, it might help to break down the scope.

Perhaps focusing on a basic set of "moderation principles" is a good way to start. The moderation principles could be universal, general language on best practices for being a good moderator. These are behavioral things that should be universal to interacting with people online, not specific to one platform or another.

A future iteration could expand on the moderation principles to offer tools, services, and other help on moderating specific platforms in the spirit of the moderation principles. I think it will be easier to collect and curate tools and resources that support some basic set of principles instead of an open call to asking folks what is useful.

What do you think?

I agree the moderation principles or basic guidelines need to be fleshed out well before tooling use is presented. I wanted to capture the issue/feature to basically not forget our conversation with the Fedora mindshare community.
