Default Should we think about creating uk.sci.weather.moderated?

In article ,

I'm not sure how these things work on Usenet but presumably
you can post what you want but it could be deleted if deemed innapropriate.


No. This would be deemed post moderation, and is very much frowned upon.
Not allowed in uk.* groups.


Alternatively, are all posts 'screened' by a moderator beforehand and they
only appear if passed fit for publication?

It depends. You can use software to allow posts that meet a
predetermined criteria (poster, keywords etc) and refer all others for
manual moderation.
