I am not sure whether it is a good idea, but Voat has a “comment modlog” feature.

https://voat .co/v/technology/about/log/comment

It provides transparency to users to see which kinds of comments the moderators delete, but I am not sure how Voat handles comments that should be entirely deleted due to personal information.

This is just some food for thought.

the content of moderator-deleted comments is actually visible in the log

This is a bad idea (doxxing or illegal ToS breaking content).

Yes, didn't seem so good to me too.

Why does Voat do it then?

The question for me would be: "What's the point in deleting comments for their content if they are still accessible in the logs?"

They would have far less exposure in the logs.

Although acceptable for spam, that's not good enough for comments that contain personal information.

How Voat does it is strange.
