An ES mod imo should put it to the membership, until there is a staff here, before deleting anybody's post(s).
thread:They gots ta go
A level of deference to a thread's broacher but not to stifle opposing or other ideas.

With some work and conscientious effort in a few year maybe more professionals will post here.
In the meantime private and presumed confidential material by [Prof. X] was posted here. My intent is to remove it in the belief [X] is unaware of the breach.
I ask all your opinionsif it should stay or it should go. If as much as a plurality of you vote it should stay I will then contact [X] and his desire will be the deciding one.
This is a matter of professional ethics.

If its not done in the workplace or classroom, in common newstand media, etc., don't do it here.
EGYPTOLOGY will not tolerate continued hateful epithets after a poster has been told to respect others as one would want to be respected.
Everyone except 2 individuals have abided by acceptable social norms. Only the culprits need be concerned.
