Hello,

The *.answers newsgroups are moderated differently from almost every
other newsgroup in that we do not post anything to the newsgroups by
ourselves.  The maintainers of the FAQs that get posted all post their
documents by themselves, and we keep a database of all the FAQs that
have been approved for posting.  Therefore, we're probably not the right
group to ask about moderating tips, unless you think you're going to
have an extreme about of mail.  Good luck.
