Leave a usernote on various mod actions #173

Open eritbh opened 5 years ago

eritbh commented 5 years ago

Integrate the usernotes module with other modules to support adding usernotes automatically on certain actions. Particularly useful on removals (removal reasons module) and bans (mod button module), though there may be other places this would be helpful.

I feel like this has been discussed in the past, but I can't remember what we decided, so I'm opening this so we have a record of it for the future even if it gets rejected.

No on thing actions (remove, spam, approve) as that will fill up the usernote space quickly. If we want to do that I propose we make a actionNotes module with a seperate wiki but even then I am not a fan as it still will fill up quicky.

I wanted to reply on the post you linked yesterday and accidentally closed tabs on drafts twice. I think that for bans it is something to consider.

Maybe add a field to the dialog to add a note manually, but don't give an option to fill it in automatically? That way it can be easily added without an extra step but won't fill up with notes for literally everything.

Actually, I think we have one or two issues still in the legacy repo that might be relevant. Let me dig up the archives.

Still not a fan, it will be an option so people will use it liberally and then come back to use when their wiki is full within a month. Also this is effectively already close enough in reach as the usernote button isn't that far from removal UI.

Oh this was the issue I was thinking about:

https://github.com/toolbox-team/reddit-moderator-toolbox-legacy/issues/850 which describes page notes. Similarly notes for specific posts rather than the author is something that was discussed in the past.

Not as relevant as I thought though.

My take is still yes on ban notes as an extra field in modbutton and no on other actions because of reasons described above.

Hi there,

With the introduction of Reddit Mod Notes, should this be included within this request or have a new one created?
