What about Neotarf's post, which you quoted, would merit moderation and under what principle? It seemed perfectly civil and constructive to me, even if Neotarf does miss the point a bit as Risker noted.

While obviously persistent repeated comments urging certain edits from banned editors like Neotarf and I would be problematic. However, I do hope that relevant one time suggestions would not be.

In fact I just this hour had an exchange with an editor about adding some new links to one of the four resources pages.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Countering_systemic_bias/Gender_gap_task_force#Resources

I said I could list them here, in case someone wanted to post them.

If someone wants to privately email me and take on the job of adding new ones I suggest if no one else has done so in a timely manner - and they think it's appropriate, email me privately. :-) I have several more that I don't think have been listed but will have to wait a week to look at.

As long as we're discussing today's new links, here they are. And it looks like they'd be most appropriate for the "Related links" page, assuming they aren't too duplicative, outdated, or whatever and someone chose not to list them:
