  • Publication number: 20230026885
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for customizing a set of restrictions for a hashtag or other user-defined annotation that violates guidelines or rules of an online resource based on automated and manual review. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems trigger manual review of user-defined annotations in a social networking system, determine various metrics based on both manual and automated review of content including a particular user-defined annotation, and generate a customized set of restrictions for the user-defined annotation based on those metrics. More specifically, the system can generate and utilize various manual review metrics and a moderated media metric to generate a custom set of restrictions for a user-defined annotation.

  • Patent number: 5630241
    Abstract: A combination pliers structure for cutting and skinning wires including a press handle mechanism having an elbow means for controlling an inner jaw means and an outer jaw means. The outer jaw means in located adjacent to the inner jaw means. In use, the press handle mechanism is suitably pressed so that a cutter at a front end of the inner jaw means cuts into the skin of the wire while the outer jaw means clamps the wire. When a greater force is exerted on the press handle mechanism, the outer jaw means is brought by the elbow portion pivotally joined to the press handles to advance forwardly along the wire, while the cutter strips the skin off the wire without damaging the wire filaments inside.
