howto:flag
If you believe a post either violates the upload rules or is low quality, you may flag it for review. To flag a post, click the "Flag" link under the Options heading in the sidebar to the left of the post.
Flagging a post sends it to the moderation queue for review. The post has three days to be reviewed by "the approval team":/users?commit=Search&search%5Blevel%5D=37 If the post is not reapproved after three days, the post will be deleted. This process is the same process that new uploads undergo.
Just because a post is flagged does not mean it will be deleted. Anyone may flag a post for any reason. A flagged post will only be deleted if no one on "the approval team":/users?commit=Search&search%5Blevel%5D=%3E=37 chooses to reapprove it after three days.
Please keep your flags civil and follow the community rules when flagging.
