Following editorial actions on the newswire list.

You can use this to view the site via the usual newswire, latest comments and events links but with the [hidden] posts marked in red (but you must follow the mails on the imc-ireland-newswire which details the reason given by the editor for hiding the comment or article, or you will be confused as to why posts are hidden.)

These hidden posts were either in breach of editorial guidelines or moved/collated to the relevant sections of the site, based on these guidelines, which are continously reviewed.

A record of all editorial actions, which editor performed the action and the reason for it, are sent to the newswire mailing list which anybody can join.(You can have the mails come to your mailbox or simply click through the links to the archive via your brower). After subscribing, you can then go through the archives of the list to see all past editorial actions. So if you want to keep an eye on the evil censorships of the imc-cabal, you know what to do. Contact page.

You can reference the hidden post you see on the newswire by taking note of the story's and/or comment's number in the address bar and finding that number on the imc-ireland-newswire list.

If you have any questions about hidden posts email the editorial list at imc-ireland-editorial@lists.indymedia.org.
