Group submission address: soc-genealogy-surnames-usa@rootsweb.com Moderator contact address: surnames-admin@rootsweb.com (Tim Pierce, Bill Mills, Margaret Olson) For your newsgroups file: soc.genealogy.surnames.usa Surnames queries - USA. (Moderated) The charter, culled from the vote result announcement: Moderated, and gatewayed to a mailing list. Soc.genealogy.surnames.usa will receive genealogical queries about people whose residence or migration has included locations within the United States of America or its territories or possessions. Searching through the many queries, both on-line and in the archives, is much easier when subject lines are formatted uniformly. All the regional soc.genealogy.surnames groups will continue to use the format developed for subject lines of posts to soc.genealogy.surnames, which requires a subject line with three fields separated by semi-colons: NAME (in caps); Place(s); Date(s) In order to assure that this format, or any other format which may be later introduced by the moderators, is used for each post, the groups will be moderated. The automoderation software, already successfully implemented for soc.genealogy.surnames, will moderate all the surnames groups. It will be modified to receive all queries and to post them only to relevant groups by cross-posting to the groups which are mentioned in the "places" part of the subject line. Posters will be informed of any changes made by the automoderator to the Newsgroups line of their post. Messages which do not arrive with the subject line in the prescribed format will be returned to the poster for modification of the subject line. An explanation of what information is missing and helpful suggestions for revising the subject line will be included with a copy of the original post, and the email address for the human moderator or moderators will be given. The automoderator will be concerned only with having well-formatted subject lines, with the following exceptions: 1: "Spam" and grossly off-topic messages, even if formatted with a nominally acceptable Subject line, may be rejected. 2: Duplicate messages should not be posted more than once in any 14 day period. The moderator may amend the automoderator to reject messages posted more frequently. This will be done by comparing incoming posts with recent messages in the archives of soc.genealogy.surnames.global, as that group will contain a copy of every message posted in any of the s.g.surnames subgroups. 3: Messages may be rejected if they contain an excess of non-plaintext material, including binaries, GEDCOM formatted text and HTML code. An explanation of the rejection will be sent to the poster. 4: Messages with unreplyable return addresses may also be rejected, though a reasonable effort may be made by moderators to determine a correct address so that the poster can be made aware of the problem. Lists of the standard codes used for places and other information about formulating good queries is available in FAQs and by email or on the web and a human moderator will be available to give help. Volunteers for all groups are: Tim Pierce , moderator-in-chief Bill Mills , moderator Margaret Olson , moderator and any co-moderators or successor moderators that all current moderators agree to. This group will be moderated by custom automoderation software developed and maintained by Tim Pierce. The moderation email address of soc-genealogy-surnames@rootsweb.com will receive posts for all the soc.genealogy.surnames groups and will make a decision, based on the subject line, about where to cross-post the message.
