Comments out of control

It seems that the comments feature is being used incorrectly to the detriment of the site and to the Sam Users Mailing List.

I feel that currently the comments are being used incorrectly in two ways:

1. People adding content via the comments rather than editing the node.
2. As an ad-hoc forum.

Surely the comments are there to comment on the entry itself, not to point out errors in the entry (which should be editied as it’s a wiki-esque site) or to discuss the entry (which should be on the Sam Users Mailing List)

Can the comments be moderated to prevent discussion or be made deleteable once content has been updated in the entry?

Just my two-penneth.
