Re: [Inkscape-docs] website moderation policy final
I'm still not able to come up with a better phrase, but either way I
think it's always better to have to delete some inappropriate images than to discourage one motivated user who has something great to contribute with unnecessarily restrictive wording.
I'm good with that. I'm good with the concensus :-)
If we find we're still getting random photos or other things because of that one phrase, we can always change it again later.

Little thing, but "created for use with Inkscape" could cover things
like just regular images... in fact it could cover just about anything, even things made with Adobe Illustrator. I'd simply cut that bit out.
Hhmm.....yes, I see what you mean. My interpretation of that, is for things like extensions or filters. But maybe there's a better way to say it?
What about "created to be installed in Inkscape"? Or maybe just "to be installed in Inkscape"? That would eliminate any kind of image. Any other suggestions out there? Eduard?
Actually I was thinking about this exact point when initially writing the replacement text...
On the one hand it obviously *could* be interpreted as "just about everything" but on the other hand common sense should make quite clear what it *intends* to say (and in the worst case we still "reserve the right to remove any content that does not seem appropriate" and can always use it as a last resort).
I decided not to leave the phrase out for the reasons mentioned by brynn. I also thought about things like symbol libraries (if they're made well I'd not require them to be created in Inkscape) and other high-quality graphic content (that would not necessarily be "installed"). But it might also include content we do not even have on our radar right now (i.e. a nifty little tool or shell script that can be used along with Inkscape but is otherwise unrelated).
I'm still not able to come up with a better phrase, but either way I think it's always better to have to delete some inappropriate images than to discourage one motivated user who has something great to contribute with unnecessarily restrictive wording.
