Research direction

Start by locating the ModAction event data definitions and the mappings for event.targetComment and event.targetPost. Compare the author and text-property handling between those objects, then verify that the corrected property names and values are consistent across the event data.

Description

reddit-api

Noticed an inconsistency in the event object data for the ModAction event: event.targetComment uses the author property name but returns the author ID (event.targetPost uses the authorId property name instead)

Also, event.targetPost uses the selftext property instead of the body property used by the Post class
