Reporting & Removing Content

When content that is in violation of our policies is shared in the Simpler Grants communication channels, follow the steps below to remove that content from the platform.

Note: Many of the steps to remove content involve contacting platform administrators.

Slack

If it was a message that you posted:

1. Select the More options menu (the three vertically stacked dots that appear when you hover over your post)

2. Choose either Edit message or Delete message to remove the content

If it was a message that someone else posted:

1. Contact a slack admin

2. The slack admin will follow the steps above to delete the post from that channel

GitHub

Important

Only administrators can remove sensitive content from GitHub because content added to GitHub will remain visible in the history of the codebase until an administrator scrubs it from the repository.

1. Contact a GitHub administrator who is a software engineer

2. They will scrub the content from the history of the code repository

Google Groups

If it was a message that you posted:

1. Select the More options menu (the three vertically stacked dots that appear when you hover over your post)

2. Choose either Edit or Delete to remove the content

If it was a message that someone else posted:

• Select the More menu (the three vertically stacked dots that appear when you hover over your post)

• Choose Report to report the violation so an administrator can review the content for removal.
