I appreciate that there are multiple ways to achieve the same thing, but is there a recommended way to go about it?

The notifications page for example. Clicking on a New registration notification takes us to the registration page, which is what we want to do. However, the User Reported notification just takes us to the user without knowing what the user was about. Similarly, the Post Reported notification takes us to the post, but we can’t see what the report reason was.

I also see /admin/reports has the post and comment reports, but not the ones for User Reported.

Thanks :)

    In each community’s moderation area there is a Reports sub-area where mods are intended to go. /admin/reports is admins to be able to get a more birds eye view of everything and potentially jump in when mods drop the ball. As an admin I basically never look at it these days and just leave it to the mods. By going to Admin -> Spam I find most of the bannable crap.

    The ‘User Reported’ notifications are currently extra ambiguous because when a new user uses an em dash that generates one of those notifications. In v1.5 I tried to add more info to the notification display so you can tell which User Reported notifs are the em-dash ones and which are real reports. This needs sorting out.
