How can I tell if my blog has been tagged for objectionable material?

    Have you contacted Blogger support staff and asked them?
    Here is a link that may be helpful

    The bottom line is that if it has been flagged we can't do anything for you here at BC.

    I am curious as to why you suspect this...

      Me too. I just visited your blog and didn't notice any questionable.

      Nice poetry, by the way.

    Thank you all for responding.

    MadMadMargo, thank you for the comment on my poetry and for reading it.

    I had gone to my blog and the task bar was all blurred, but I made out the words 'tagged for objectionable material'. I refreshed and that was gone. But then I navigated away from the page and came back and the task bar was blurred again, but I saw the same 'tagged' phrase. Again I refreshed and it disappeared. I didn't know whether it was just a computer glitz or whether I had actually been tagged.

    My most recent poem which I have since deleted was called 'Don't Want No Guitar Man'. It was not obscene nor vulgar, but it might have offended someone who played the guitar. (By the way, I like guitar playing. LOL! My own son plays the guitar and so does my brother.)

    I'm going to re-post that poem. Maybe someone can read it and tell me if it is too offensive and could have been tagged.

    Thanks again.

      I'm wishing you well but I'm also also wanting you to know that what we think is irrelevant. If your blog has been flagged then you need to contact Blogger staff. And if you don't know if it has been flagged then you need to contact Blogger staff. We have heard of other "flase positive" flagging cases here. The bloggers in question had to get Blogger staff to sort the problem.

    Well, I'm going to have to wait to repost the poem. I'm having too many glitches.

      Rebecca are you using a plain text editor are or you drafting first in microsoft word? The reason I ask is because microsoft includes a lot of formatting garbage along with the html that frequently creates "glitches".

    timethief, I just use WordPad. I don't use microsoft word.

    I finally got my poem (or lyrics) re-posted.
    1. timethief
      WordPad has the same problem I described.
      It would be better if you used Notepad.

    Rebecca7,

    I don't see anything objectionable on your blog and I dont want to ring the alarm bell, but I got the same "blurring thing" you are talking about some days ago and, today, my blog is now tagged as "objectionable" and a warning page have appear before you can enter it.

    I just hope this is not an automatic thing and a real human review the blog before doing that.
