The sort of thing you want to do was part of my motivation for the Archipelago concept, so would definitely be interested in seeing what you do with such an island.
I have some questions/comments/thoughts about how you’d handle certain kinds of edge cases, but that’s a conversation I’d like to have some other time.
A not-required-but-heavily-encouraged norm of each island having a stickied post with the moderation norms
Yeah, this is already basically the case, but as comments in this post highlighted, it is not nearly as clear as it should be, and we’ll work on some way to make it more obvious.
tldr: you can click on the Moderation Guidelines at the top of the comment section to see the author’s general norms. I’m was mulling over changing this so that it shows the first couple lines of the moderation policy, with a ‘read more’ thing that looks similar to how frontpage Recent Comments look, and maybe saying “this user has not set any explicit moderation guidelines” if they haven’t listed it yet.
It might be worthwhile to create a popup with the moderation norms that shows when a person clicks “submit” with the options: “Edit post” “Post conforms to the norms” (there might be a checkbox to not show the popup again)
