you ask and it goes. you dont have to give a reason and you wont be asked for one, take that with a pinch of salt

came back after 25 months and my old lines were exactly where i left them, edited markers included

TT

the timestamp confusion is the most asked thing in here and ive answered it every year since 2024, i think

CC

i was wrong about the timestamps for ages, i assumed they shifted with summer time. they dont

the redaction marker links to the policy page so nobody has to guess what happened

VV

the mental health channel gets the lowest bar for redaction and thats the right call

still confuses me

do i have to give a reason for a redaction

Verification log updated: ERP — evidence added, status unchanged.

CC

there were two multi day logging failures, one in 2024 and one in 2025, those days are just gone

CC

UTC always, no seasonal adjustment, which is why evenings in australia land on the previous date

how long does a redaction request usually take
