I suppose what we can do is take the view that the artefact is being viewed "from", and apply the moderation setting from that, to the artefact comments.

However, there's still a loophole in this, which is that an artefact can be viewed from multiple pages. So there's a high likelihood of a confusing case arising where a user has placed an artefact in two separate views, one with comment moderation enabled, and the other without. And if we ever implement individual artefact access, that will provide an even greater loophole; just access the artefact's page directly.

I think the "comment moderation" setting was probably originally devised without taking artefact comments into consideration. It would probably be a good idea to give it a good think and see if we can come up with a clever and more intuitive way to handle this. Like perhaps making a user's comment moderation setting global instead of per-page; or making it aware of "logged in" / "friend" / "logged-out".
