Every report submitted to Clean Nagaland receives a tracking code such as ABCD-EFGH. Enter yours below to see the current status. This is the only way to check what happened to your report because we do not collect any personal information that could identify you.

How to read the status

Pending

Your report is in the moderator queue waiting for review. This is the normal state for the first 24 to 72 hours after submission. Moderators work the queue oldest first during Nagaland business hours. During festivals, holidays, or spikes in submissions the wait can be longer.

There is nothing you need to do while a report is pending. Submitting the same report again does not speed up review and may cause the duplicate to be rejected.

On hold

A moderator looked at your report but needs more time to decide. This usually means they want to cross-check something, wait to see if more reports come in about the same location, or consult with another moderator. Reports do not sit on hold forever. Within a further 72 hours the status will change to approved or rejected.

Approved (alcohol)

Your report passed moderation. The pin is now visible on the public map. If another reporter had already flagged the same location within 100 meters, your report was merged into the existing pin and the count increased. Your individual report is never shown separately on the map.

If Aloto Naga personally visits the location to confirm, the pin gets a green operator-verified badge. This can happen days or weeks after approval.

Approved (drug)

Your drug report passed moderation. It has been forwarded to one or more vetted partner organizations. Drug reports never appear on any public map or feed. The status page will not tell you which partner received the case, what the partner decided to do, or whether they contacted anyone. That information is confidential by design.

If you shared a phone number and consented to contact, a trained partner counselor may reach out to you separately. They will introduce themselves and explain who they are. You can end the conversation at any time.

Acted on (drug only)

A partner organization has taken action on your drug report. This is an aggregate status. It does not tell you who, what, or when. The point of this status is to confirm that your report did not disappear into a void. A real partner received it and did something.

Closed (drug only)

The partner handling your case has marked it closed. This usually means the work the partner could do has been done, whether that was counseling, outreach, referral, or legal guidance. A closed status does not mean the broader problem is solved. It means the partner’s specific engagement has ended.

Rejected

A moderator decided your report did not meet the platform’s guidelines for action. Common reasons:

• Insufficient detail to act on.
• The report was outside Nagaland.
• The activity described is not illegal or is not within the platform’s scope.
• The report named a specific individual, which the Community Guidelines prohibit.
• The report appeared to be a test, spam, or malicious submission.
• The report was part of a coordinated campaign against a target.

Rejection is not a mark against you. It just means this particular report cannot move forward. If you believe the rejection was unfair, see the appeal section below.

Archived

Very old reports that were resolved or closed long ago may move to an archived state. The record remains in our audit log but is no longer active.

If the status page says “code not found”

Three possibilities:

1. You typed the code wrong. Codes are eight characters with a dash in the middle, like ABCD-EFGH. Only letters and numbers, no zeros, no ones. Double-check what you wrote down.
2. The submission did not go through. If you did not see a confirmation screen when you submitted, the report may not have saved. You will need to submit again.
3. The report was rejected as spam and auto-purged within 24 hours. Very low-quality or clearly automated submissions are deleted quickly to keep the database clean. The tracking code becomes invalid after purge.

How long tracking codes stay valid

• Approved alcohol reports: tracking code works indefinitely while the pin remains on the map.
• Approved drug reports: tracking code works for as long as we retain the case, typically up to 24 months.
• Rejected reports: code works for a short window so you can see the rejection reason, then the report is purged.
• Archived reports: code continues to return a status but no longer shows active details.

What the status page will never tell you

We deliberately limit what the status page reveals so that a tracking code cannot be weaponized by someone who finds it. The status page will never show:

• Exact GPS coordinates of an alcohol report.
• The full text of your original description.
• Photos or videos you uploaded.
• Which partner received a forwarded drug report.
• What a partner said, did, or wrote in their case notes.
• A phone number you shared, even back to you.
• Any information that could identify you or anyone else.

If you lost your tracking code

We cannot resend it. We have no way to contact you because we did not collect a name, email, or phone on the alcohol form, and any phone on the drug form is encrypted beyond our casual access.

If the report was important to you, your options are:

• Check the map. If it was an alcohol report and you remember roughly where the pin would be, check the public map. If your report was approved, the pin will be visible.
• Submit again. You can file a fresh report with the same information. If the location matches an existing pin within 100 meters, the new report will be merged with the existing one.
• Wait for the monthly transparency page. Aggregate outcomes are published on the first of every month at Monthly Transparency. You will not see your specific report but you will see whether reports like yours are generally being approved.

If you want to appeal a rejection

Two options:

1. Submit a revised report. If the original lacked detail, add detail. If it violated a guideline you now understand, fix it. A revised report gets a fresh moderator review by someone who does not know about the earlier rejection.
2. Formal appeal. Contact us through the Contact page with the tracking code and a clear explanation of why you disagree with the decision. Appeals are reviewed within seven working days by a different moderator or by Aloto Naga directly.

Appeals are read carefully. We do not always reverse decisions but we always consider them seriously. Patterns in appeals help us train moderators and improve the guidelines.

If you want to withdraw a pending report

You can withdraw a report before a moderator decision by contacting us through the Contact page within 24 hours of submission. Include the tracking code and a short note that you want to withdraw. We will remove the report from the queue.

Reports that have already been decided cannot be withdrawn. Approved alcohol pins can be taken down through the Takedown and Appeal process.

Privacy note

The status check page runs entirely on the code you enter. We do not log who looked up which code. We do not track your browser across lookups. Anyone who has your tracking code can check its status, which is why the page deliberately reveals only a narrow set of information.

If you are worried someone else has your tracking code, remember that the code by itself cannot identify you, reveal your report’s full contents, or expose anyone else. It shows a status, nothing more.
