It just says "comment_moderation_settings_help" which appears to be a null function in the .module.

It seems like a good module in practice, but having to use it within a block is sort of annoying. I liked the idea of having its own page in the admin/comments page. Also, you should be able to filter the block by date.

You do not have to use it in a block. But the block is indeed the entry-point to access the interface. I guess we could change that, but the settings page is not the correct location for it. David added a patch today to allow one to access the comment_moderation interface via the approval queue, which is uch more convenient for those people that do not want to use the block.

I myself like to have that block (visible for only me) so I have a clear view of how many comments have been added.

The filtering by date is less useful in my opinion, because the aim is to clear the approval queue. I don't really see what the point would be to go back to a specific date. Maybe I need more information to understand how you would use this.

Most of my concerns will be addressed in the other thread I start #431362: Expanding the functionality scope of comment_moderation module or create a new one? In reality, the block is appropriate for just dealing with moderated comments / date filter is not necessary. In short, I wanted to leverage this module to be able to delete spam comments easily but not use comment moderation (allowing anonymous posting directly to the site).

We should refocus this thread to the empty admin page, which should either have some options in it or be removed.

Right. The consensus was to remove it for the stable release (which was forgotten), but in the meantime I came up with the first feature request which requires a configuration option. (jeuj \o/)
