Chris, I assume your post was meant for the discussion list?

I agree, very visible guidelines for commenting, including editorial
policy, our policy of not logging IP's and where to find the hidden
posts page would be valuable. those pages are currently fairly well
hidden, and i think it would help to have them more visible, perhaps
right there in the 'add a comment' box.

Tom is making a new site, so we could think about what changes we want
to make to comments system for that.
