== Recurrent errors from a user ==
Here is our '''current process''' about it.
# Don't blame him/her, don't delete the user account: he/she's probably acting in good faith.
# Try to contact the user to help him/her.
## Write a factual email (see template below). Be gentle! We are a project for providing food transparency and not to argue with somebody about bad practices or legal issues.
# Tell other moderators about your action.
## Prefer moderation-off-private private Slack channel. Other channels are ok.
# If you don't get any answer, repeat step 2 twice or three times.
# If you don't get any answer and the user still making annoying errors, block his/her IP.
## Ask a sysadmin to block the IP.
### Sysadmin can find the corresponding IP: sysadmin@off1:~$ [todo]
### Sysadmin should add the date to know when to delete old entries.
