Revisiting: A staff appointment, and what the role involves

Meta › Announcements moderation site feedback guidelines

Revisiting: A staff appointment, and what the role involves — setting out what I have, and where I think it stops being reliable.

Process question about how this site works.

I have read the guidelines and the trust-level page and I still have a question about the mechanism rather than the rule. Specifically, I would like to understand the reasoning behind it, because I suspect the reasoning is better than the rule sounds.

Not a complaint. If the answer is "because of a failure mode you have not seen yet", I would like to hear about the failure mode.

Archives: older announcements are archived by date. Checking archives is useful if you want to know what changed when.

Feedback to announcements: if you have feedback on an announced change (not a question, but your position) post it in the Meta category rather than here.
