Flagging an entry as inappropriate
If you encounter a blog entry that you consider inappropriate, you can flag the entry so that a reviewer can determine whether to remove the entry from the blog. This feature must be enabled by your administrator.
About this task
Occasionally you might come across a blog entry with inappropriate or even illegal content. Any user can flag an entry as inappropriate. The blog owner or a designated reviewer is notified, reviews the entry, and then determines whether the entry is removed or whether the flag is dismissed.
What is considered inappropriate is determined by the community standards for your blog. It differs according to the intention of the blog and according to corporate guidelines. For example, a blog with a wide audience might have strict guidelines about disclosing information that is related to product development, while another might support sharing information about product direction. Most blogs discourage profanity or personal attacks. If the guidelines are not clear, you might consider posting what is appropriate and what is not, so users understand the guidelines. If you are not clear on guidelines, ask your Blogs administrator.
