Appeal a Moderation Decision
Last updated: August 5, 2026
Our automatic checks decided about one of your own works: it was not approved for publishing, or it was taken down. This page asks a person on our safety team to look at that decision again. If you are asking to be removed from someone else's content, use the depicted-person appeal instead.
What happens next
Publishing and takedowns are decided automatically; an appeal is the one step a person handles. Appeals are normally decided within five business days, and you are notified of the result.
If a "not approved" appeal is upheld, you can publish the work again. If a takedown appeal is upheld, the work is restored for you. If an appeal is not upheld, the decision stands and the reason is shown here.
Submit an appeal
Open this page from the Appeal link on your work, so it knows which decision you are appealing.
