- The focus now should be on building the site; we don't yet have much *to* moderate, after all. The admins (ArtOfCode, Luap42, and I) keep an eye on all sites to take care of administrative requests like configuration changes.
That said, a community does need moderators from within its ranks, people who know the domain -- we shouldn't assume admins can evaluate some of the flags that'll come up. We're going to appoint a pro-tem mod (as soon as the person responds). As the site grows, we'll ultimately want the *community* to choose its mods. But first, let's focus on building that community of people and content.

We have appointed [mattdm](https://photography.codidact.com/users/36348) as a pro-tem mod. As the site grows, we'll ultimately want the *community* to choose its mods.
