I have a requirement to block / redact or at the very minimum provide the ability to report and alert administrators when certain terms are published within confluence pages. I appreciate that in general this such an approach is not best practice in terms of Wiki openness etc but I need a solution to support corporate governance policies.

G'day @Jean-Paul,

Redaction for Confluence provides a more granular level of content visibility, enabling you to hide words or paragraphs within a page. Redacted content is not included in page exports or search results, ensuring that sensitive information stays private.

May be useful for your scenario.

If you want more details on the add-on contact me via nick@arijea.com or +1 415 568 7064.

Regards,

Using the reporting plug-in, you could create a table of violators:

------------------------

Code:

-----------------------

{report-table}

{content-reporter:space=@self}

{or-filter}

{text-filter:content:body|include=dog,cat}

{text-filter:content:title|include=dog,cat}

{or-filter}

{content-reporter}

{report-column:title=Title}{report-info:page:title|link=true}{report-column}

{report-table}

------------------------
------------------------
This only searches a single space (whichever space contains the page with this content. It can search all spaces by changed "@self" to "@all". It may be slow in refreshing, depending upon your volume. It may make more sense to do a database query.
This example searches for the strings: "cat" and "dog". Replace that with your blacklist.
I do not know if you can subscribe to the page and it will run automatically. It may be a manual page visit, 1/day or whatever you need.

If you are able to hit the database with an sql query, or schedule a report, you could use a variant of this query. Pros: no plugin; cons: sql.

-- Query to locate current pages containing a specified string
-- Jim Birch 2011.01.28
select  -- top 100
 s.spacekey, c.TITLE, c.CREATOR, c.LASTMODIFIER, c.LASTMODDATE --, bc.body 
from
  dbo.CONTENT c
join
  dbo.BODYCONTENT bc
on
 c.CONTENTID = bc.CONTENTID
-- note: spaceid is null on old page versions so join on
-- space id selects only current pages.  Nice.
join
 dbo.SPACES s
on
 s.SPACEID = c.SPACEID
where
 bc.BODY like '%sometext%' 
order by
 s.spacekey, c.title
