Moderation Team goals is to build and manage the moderation process.
Moderation Team is composed of experienced users.
Moderation rules
For every case you should take care of the whole concerned product: a moderation issue often reveals a completely false product.
If you're not sure a new product matches with a real product, delete the whole product.
The following rules don't apply to the product itself: ex. if a product contains a picture with a face.
1. Product picture with a people face
- The face is clearly recognizable? => Delete the picture.
- The face isn't clearly recognizable? => Keep the picture, eventually crop it.
2. Product picture containing both the product and part of a body
- The part of the body can re-identify somebody? => Delete the picture.
- The part of the body cannot re-identify somebody (ex. legs) => Keep the picture, eventually crop it.
- Delete the picture.
4. Product picture containing parts with obscene or illegal content
- Delete the picture.
5. Empty products
- When the product entered is almost empty (no name, no picture, no nutritional information, but eventually lang and country), it is automatically deleted. There is no need to delete it.
6. Picture taken from manufacturer's site, shopping sites or other sites
As mentioned in the FAQs:
Can I add product pictures or data from the manufacturer's site, shopping sites or other sites? Probably not. Almost all other sites forbid reproduction and reuse of their data and images, and that is actually the reason why we have created Open Food Facts: to make all this data available to all and for all uses.
To avoid any legal problem, we therefore ask contributors to only add pictures that they took themselves, and only data that is coming from the product packaging and label.
Hence, if you find a picture that is taken from other website:
- check that it was not uploaded by the producer itself
- make sure that it is taken from other website by finding the original picture. You can use reversed image searches. Mind the details such as expiry date, lot number, etc.
- ask confirmation from other moderators
- make sure that all possible information from the picture have been extracted to the fields (such as product name, brand, weight, etc.) because if this picture is the single picture of the product, these information will be lost.
- finally, delete them
How to delete a picture
prerequisite: you need to be moderator.

Recurrent vandalism from a user
Here is our current process about it.
- Don't delete the user account: it's easier to watch the activity of a known vandal.

- If you don't get any answer and the user still abusing, 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.
