and click login and you will now be able to view the site via the usual newswire, latest comments and events links but with the [hidden] posts marked in red.

These hidden posts were either in breach of editorial guidelines or moved/collated to the relevant sections of the site, based on the these guidelines, which are continously reviewed.

(You will also be able to see new features being worked on, which you can then contribute to by emailing ../imc-ireland-editorial@lists.indymedia.org)

A record of all editorial actions, which editor performed the action and the reason for it, are sent to the newswire mailing list which anybody can join. After subscribing, you can then go through the archives of the list to see all past editorial actions. So if you want to keep an eye on the evil censorships of the imc-cabal, you know what to do. Contact page.

If you have any questions about hidden posts email the editorial list at ../imc-ireland-editorial@lists.indymedia.org. *note* Because of the voluntary nature of the site there may be a delay in getting back to.

You can reference the hidden post you see on the newswire by taking note of the story's and/or comment's number in the address bar and finding that number on the imc-ireland-newswire list.

The main lists that are used to create the site are imc-ireland@lists.indymedia.org and ../imc-ireland-editorial@lists.indymedia.org. If you subscribe to them, lurk or get involved in discussions, then you can begin to learn how the site works and contribute your own ideas and passion.
