Would it be possible for you to have a sub where you post reasons for all bans?

Oh I would love this. I have a list of banned subs over at /r/listofsubreddits and I'd love to add reasons to it

Like some sort of transparency report?

It's both possible and necessary. If we are going to have faith in the system, we need the system to be transparent.

This would be great. Something like /r/ChillingEffects would be absolutely great.

I like this a lot. I don't see any reason why something like this shouldn't exist

This is something that's really important. Blindly banning users or censoring posts in secret is fascist style censorship, and leads to situations like the current one where shadowbans are constantly being abused for the most inane and immature reasons. For there to be actual open discussion, any moderating action that takes place has to be just as open.

I think that's a great idea, it gives people the chance to review.

Or just before a ban, a public evaluation subreddit that the about-to-be-banned subreddit gets an evaluation and vote?

All bans? Including bans of spammers? The whole point of "shadowbans" is that they don't find out and get around the ban.
