- Appeals from reporters occur when individuals challenge decisions made on a notice they previously submitted. For example, if we inform a reporter that the content they reported was not actionable after review, they can appeal that decision.
- Approved appeals result in the reversal or alteration of a previous moderation decision.
- Rejected appeals indicate that the original action or decision was upheld.
- Appeals classified as invalid were reports that did not involve the appealing of a decision on a past report. An example of an invalid report would be where individuals submit new reports regarding user generated content.
