Moderation reason guidance for admin operations and SEO safety

Reasons should be specific enough to act on

A vague rejection reason helps no one. Staff need enough detail to understand the issue, fix it when possible, and explain the decision later.

Moderation state influences public visibility

If a listing is blocked from search, sitemap, or profile surfaces, that linkage should be operationally visible instead of hidden behind indirect symptoms.

Support and SEO both depend on clarity

When moderation reasons are clean, support can help the user faster and SEO operations can understand why content disappeared from public discovery.
