I know that it is possible for we as moderators to [redact revisions][1] (as announced in the [February 2016 Newsletter][2]).

However, I was just searching for guidance on when such redactions should be approved or rejected by another moderator.

In this case I have received a notification to approve the redaction of a server name and a user's full name from a path that has been *flagged by someone other than the poster*.

I see such paths in questions frequently and would be happy to redact them, when they are *flagged by the original poster*.

However, my concern is that redacting them when other than the poster flags them is overuse of the tool and may set a precedent for more such flagging.

Is there any guidance on when another moderator should approve/reject Moderator Revision Redaction Approval requests? 

I think such guidance should be part of any implementation to address  https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/289853/please-add-documentation-about-the-redaction-tool-to-the-moderator-help
