Kees Hink () author can't delete comments on plone.org documentation

Reply Threaded

Recently i was notified of a comment on a how-to i wrote. It requested me to
make the necessary alterations, and then remove the comment. The full text will
be familiar to you, but i include it below.

However, at present it's not possible for me to moderate comments on the item.
I've made a feature request at the plone.org website issue tracker
(https://dev.plone.org/plone.org/ticket/1370).

I really think authors should be able to toss away comments after processing,
but in the meantime, maybe it would be a good idea to find another way to get
them removed. It would make how-to's look less like mailing lists. Starting with
mine: I would be grateful if someone were kind enough to remove the comments on
the item linked below.

Cheers,

Kees

Hi Kees-

This is something we're all dealing with and according to the
plone.org admin/website list, they have a plan of some sort.
We do have a plan for commenting that should help but it won't be
rolled out until we migrate plone.org/documentation to the latest
version of PHC.
Be patient! We will get this taken care of, I promise!

In reply to this post by Kees Hink

I've removed the comment and closed the ticket.

We've adjusted the permissions in the documentation area since we're moving
toward a new manual-based system that editors will manage, which is why you
didn't have rights. Sorry about that...

Cheers,

- Veda

Actually ... authors have never had the right to remove comments from
published documents.

This is a major pain, and part of why we're moving to a commentless
model. Instead, anyone with "documentation collective" rights (which
should include all authors), will be able to edit anywhere except in
the manual's section.
