I got "yellow card" from StackOverflow with message "Your review on triage/### wasn't helpful".  I do not complain about it.  Purpose of this post is to fill the bug.  The problem is that I knew about getting yellow card wrong way. I became aware of it only when I manually directed browser to review queues page  .  StackOverflow usually invites you to participate in review by displaying red dot on review queues icon. In my case I saw red dot and when I pressed review queues icon I saw message "There are no review queues available to you" (without any clickable URLs). Well, it could be that queue got cleared before I clicked icon or some glitch.  But when I saw it appear again and again with the same message and without any URLs I wondered what could be the case and visited reviews page by directly specifying URL in browser.  Red dot disappeared once I visited review page and saw the warning so it is OK.  The problem is that red dot appears with no actionable URLs or explanation so user has no chances to know that something strange happens.  It would be nice to add some clickable item under message "There are no review queues available to you" or make this message clickable so user could see what is going on.

This is not a duplicate of , because this reports different things from that question. That question is specifically about the case where the user has run out of daily reviews; this question reports different problems outlined in the below bullets. While this post also formerly covered that, that has since been edited out. The review queues indicator shows all reviews in a queue a user has access to, no matter if that user is able to review them.  As a result, there are various circumstances where the review indicator gives false information:  There are items in a queue which the user does not have the reputation to review. (I only know of this happening in the suggested edits queue, where tag wiki edits land in the same queue as post edits.) This once . The only pending edits in the suggested edits review queue are the user's own tag wiki edits. (Users with 5,000 reputation but less than 20,000 can review tag wiki edits, but can't bindingly edit them.) There is a single pending suggested edit, which is currently being reviewed by someone else and has been &quot;checked out&quot; to that reviewer. The reviewer has already voted on a post in the queue (e.g. flagging a current Low Quality post as NAA or VLQ externally, or externally voting to close or reopen a post currently in one of those queues) The reviewer has skipped reviews The user has reviewed all items in a queue, but they have not left it yet  There have been numerous calls to fix all different aspects of this, as you can see by the links above. However, at heart it is all one problem: the indicator appears for queues when a user can’t review the items in the queue. I suggest solving this problem once and for all, by making sure that users are not notified for reviews they can do nothing about. So here’s my plea: please don’t show us the indicator for reviews we cannot perform!

A couple of times recently when I attempted to edit a post while reviewing it from the "First Posts" queue, I received the following message when I tried to submit the form:  This edit would have to be a suggested edit. (x)   This is a rather cryptic message, considering that edits made from a review are suggested edits, subject to the same peer review process. There was no indication of how the edit would have to be submitted differently, much less why. I searched both help and meta for more information about this message, but came up empty.  The first time it happened, after I cancelled out I saw that someone else had just edited the post, so I thought maybe that's why I couldn't submit an edit from the review (and wondered why, if that's the case, the error message didn't just say that instead of telling me something that doesn't make any sense - that the edit I'm trying to suggest can't be submitted because it would have to be a suggested edit). However, the second time I received this message (last night, for this question: ), there was no other edit. So, I clicked the No action needed button and tried to edit the post outside the review process, only to discover that the edit link was grayed out.   I see several explanations of possible causes for graying out the edit link here: . However, there was no tooltip when I hovered over the disabled link, and the edit queue was in the single digits.  A few minutes later, I noticed that the edit link was no longer grayed out, so I edited the post and my edit was accepted.   My best hypothesis based on my experience with the error so far and the explanations I've read here at meta is that someone submitted a suggested edit while I was reviewing the post, which (a) caused me to get the cryptic error message and (b) caused the edit link to be grayed out when I accessed the post the normal way. Then a few minutes later, the suggested edit was rejected, opening up the question for new edit suggestions.  Rather than speculating about it and trying to determine the answer scientifically, it would be helpful if someone could give me the answer (as Seinfeld fans might put it, "Why don't you just tell me why I can't edit the post?"). It would be even more helpful if the error message itself provided the explanation, or if the message were defined somewhere in the help pages. But, at the very least, hopefully there will soon be an answer on meta to enlighten people who scratch their chins over this in the future. :)

When I am review-banned, the direct effect is that when I click the review icon in the top-bar, I get this:        This doesn’t tell me anything about what's going on, just that all review queues have miraculously become unavailable to me. It doesn't show that it's because I've been banned, or why I've been banned, whether it's for failing audits or whether there is a custom message supplied by a moderator. Only when I new-tab-click that button, it takes me to /review, or when I manually navigate there, I get :        This is confusing for review-banned users who use the dropdown in their standard workflow (). I only performed the above test to reproduce the experience of a confused review-banned user on a site I moderate.  Please replace the dropdown message with something more informative in case of a review ban.

One of the more common bits of feedback when we  was that some sites would prefer to have an indication when there are any outstanding reviews available. So we are trying an experiment with an &quot;inbox zero&quot; review indicator. This would mean:  The review indicator lights up whenever there is at least one item in any queue.  There's no concept of the &quot;danger threshold&quot;; if there's even one item in a queue, it's marked with a red dot.    Clearly, this logic would be annoying for , so we've made it a site setting. We're going to test it out on a handful of sites to see how people respond to it:            One final thing: you will be notified even when you cannot complete a review task (for anyone who can see the review queue - 500+ reputation). In particular, people who do not have enough reputation to handle items all the queues will be notified of items in queues they can't access. This is the next thing we are working to fix. If too many people are frustrated by this situation, we'll pause the test until that problem is fixed. It'll also light up even after you've finished all the review tasks available to you, which is a much harder problem for us to fix. The goal of this experiment is to test whether aggressively notifying users can make &quot;inbox zero&quot; a possibility for sites that are close.

Today, I started exploring the reviews section on Stack&nbsp;Overflow and specially the Triage queue.  In the  section I can see all my reviews, and also the triage category I chose (for example, 'Looks OK', 'Should Be Improved', 'Skip', etc.), but I can't see the final consensus of each review unless I click on one of them, and I have to select each review manually to see its consensus.  Why doesn't the review's history include the consensus of our each review next to it, so every one will know that he is doing reviews correctly? And how can I suggest that to the community?  Update:  Maybe something like this:    Second Update:  Following Saposhiente's remarks within comments, I want to clarify that the checkmarks in the picture above means that the reviewer's choice matched the consensus.  However, the picture is only a simplified example regarding the emplacement where we can add the consensus column. Thus, I join the opinion of Saposhiente, suggesting to add a:     Consensus column that lists what exactly the consensus was, and   bolds the differing items

While reviewing suggested edits and first posts by new users today, the review system did something new - an alert appeared that suggested that what I was reviewing was probably spam, and prompted me to take a careful look at it.  Should I be doing anything differently than I otherwise do while reviewing when I see this? Additionally, are my actions contributing to helping the spam prevention systems learn?

On Stack Overflow, is there any way for users to view the actions that have been taken for the questions that they have flagged? I recently tried to move one of my own questions for stackoverflow to , but I still don't know whether my request was accepted or declined, or whether a response is still pending or not.

I think it's since the "No action needed" buttons were introduced, that there are no posts to review in the queues mentioned in the title.  I'm just wondering, why is that? Before that there was plenty to do.

It looks as if the 10k-tools flagged post list is b0rken.  Next to the review link in the toolbar there is a flag counter showing there are 10 flags to be reviewed:    Clicking on that flag counter leads to an empty page:        The moment I visit that page (through clicking on the flags counter, or by going to the review queue first then clicking on Tools, selecting the flags tab if not already selected), the flags counter disappears from the toolbar:    but after a while (half an hour, an hour?) the flag count re-appears in the toolbar.  Either the counter is wrong (presumably taken from a Redis cache somewhere) or the 10k flag review page is falling over every time someone tries to load it.  This at first appeared to happen only on Meta, on Stack Overflow the flags page has plenty to review. However, there are now  on Stack Overflow.

The below bug doesn't always happen, but does most of the time. Steps to reproduce:  Go to any review queue Post a comment Edit the comment Click Save Edits  Result:  Obviously the red box above is the annoying bug...  :-)

On SO, when I'm scrolling through "questions" some have a yellow background.  Is this intuitive to everyone but me?  What is the yellow background trying to tell me about this particular question?

I just ran across  and immediately thought to myself "yes, that should be deleted." But before I recommended deletion, I took a quick look at the question.  What the hell? A red background? The question is deleted? Must be a review audit... But then I still get a popup when I click the Recommend Deletion button... Ok, now I'm confused...  Taking a look at the , none of the answers under it are actually deleted.  Is this something to do with the question having been posted clear back in 2008? I mean, it wasn't deleted until 2011 (but automatically), so I wouldn't suspect that to be the problem. Is something else going on here? Should we clearly be blaming Sam for this?  If this isn't a bug, I'd say that LQP review certainly shouldn't be picking answers from closed and deleted questions. It's not like anyone can actually see those (and it should be deleted anyways).

Another meta question identified a bug that was marked as designed. To summarize the bug, the little number that appears next the Review link in the header shows an incorrect value most of the time.         I would like to propose that the feature be dropped. Honestly, I would prefer it be fixed, but the response to the question above gives me little faith that it will be. Half of the time, I click that little brown box and find out that I was lied to. There's nothing to review.  The little number no longer does the job it was created to do.        Oh sweet! Three things I can review!        Just kidding...

I just reviewed 20 items in the close vote queue and got the message     Thank you for reviewing 20 close votes today; come back in 15 hours to continue reviewing.   Normally this is 40 items but .  Can this restriction be removed for Stack Overflow or better the actual queue size be considered since the queue actually contains more items than being displayed?

For your continued efforts in reviewing posts, even though the system sometimes messes up and doesn't let you actually review things and keeps displaying them over and over and over. So also, for your patience in putting up with the glitches in the review panel too! Haha  Anyways, a gold reviewer badge: 20000 reviews, over 4000 actioned  I just multiplied both numbers by 20. Think those numbers seem challenging? Is anyone up near those numbers or should it be multiplied by 10 instead? I prefer the higher amount because it would be gold and something harder to work for. :) But we also have to consider the longevity of when all these posts are eventually reviewed and it's only new posts being created.  Anyways, my stats for those who are interested (I wouldn't get the badge to start because I only have ~2000 actioned):  Upvoted            189 Downvoted          11 Edited             926 Commented          127 Voted to Close     44 Flagged            447 Reviewed           21609   As far as the name of the badge, I really like "The Owl is Watching" but not sure if that would be too long. Sounds snazzy though. Ideas?    Personally, I was on a quest to try and clear out all the posts in a single tab before it started showing me the same things over and over (and over) and then it got frustrating because I wasn't even making progress. Quest denied. :(    Lately I've noticed a massive build-up of unreviewed posts. When the review panel was first implemented, there would only ever be maybe 50 unreviewed posts at a time (in a given tab) for my monthly view. Now I log in and there's a thousand or two thousand pending. I think a lot of people quit reviewing after the first badge, so having a gold badge with a high threshold would really improve activity in the review panel and keep people going to improve the community.

I just noticed that the FAQ link at the top of the page is replaced with "help". However, the description of the Analytical Badge is still "Visited every section of the FAQ". Shouldn't this also be changed to "Visited every section of the helpcenter" or something like that?  Also how will this badge be awarded now? Do you have to click on every link in the helpcenter to get this badge or do you just have to take the tour now?  Update: The description of the tag is now Visited every section of the FAQ (retired) so the issue is solved!

The  would like to announce another release in a  for the Review queues. This release focuses on refreshing the queue user interface in preparation for further improvements to the user experience. Starting today, we will roll out these changes in three phases across the network. Roll-out plan We have planned for these UI changes to ship in three distinct phases affecting specific queues across the network. We will update this post as each phase is rolled out.      What Where When     Phase 1 • Home page (/review) • Close and reopen votes queue• Stats/History view• Steward badge Meta Stack ExchangeMeta Stack Overflow Shipped! January 28, 2021   Phase 2 • Changes from Phase 1• Suggested edits queue • Low quality posts queue • First posts queue • Late answers queue SuperUserAsk Ubuntu Shipped! February 16, 2021   Phase 3 • Changes from Phase 1 + 2• Triage queue (SO only)• Help and improvement queue (SO only) All network sites Shipped!February 23, 2021    UI changes to all queues  All review queues will be adopting a new user interface that focuses on providing reviewers with context to make deliberate, thoughtful decisions on review tasks. We shared an initial design proposal in our  and made sure to include that feedback into the final design. Responsive/Mobile-friendly design  We utilized  to update the visual design in the review queues. As part of this update, we were also able to make the queues responsive and utilize mobile-friendly UI components. Changes  Actions menu -  We’ve removed the action buttons for a menu-style component. Selecting an action now requires a bit of pause and mitigates robo-reviewer behaviors we've seen in the past. Instructions are now always visible and associated with each action.  More context - Users can now toggle between the review task and the necessary context (original question, answers, and comments) on the task page to assist in making educated decisions on a task. No need to open new browser tabs!  Vote controls and follow feature - We heard from you that being able to vote directly on all tasks as well as the option to follow posts and receive updates on changes would help in the reviewing process. These features will be available in all queues.  Filter button - We’re highlighting this feature (where it’s available) with a button and replacing the easily missed text-link.  Review count - We’ve removed the badge progress bar in lieu of keeping track of how many tasks you can complete in a queue (don’t worry, the badge bar isn’t gone).   Review home page  The review homepage has received a Stacks update as well, setting it up for forthcoming plans to create better onboarding for new reviewers. This page now provides a bit more information to new reviewers. Changes  Only the queues available/earned by the user are clickable  Includes additional text about necessary reputation to earn access to new queues  Available queues are prioritized to the top and then sorted by the number of tasks in each queue   Additional updates   All aspects of the Review queues are receiving some much needed design attention. Here a few more changes you can expect to see:  There is more incentive to continue reviewing. The Steward badge can now be earned multiple times for every 1,000 reviews in each queue. If you have already completed 2,000 or more reviews, we will backfill any additional Steward badges that you have already earned. You can expect to see them accrue over the next few days.  History view - Added and rearranged a few UI components so that users can better navigate and utilize the page  Stats view - Updated badge progress bar   Feedback Please leave any feedback or bug reports related to this release below this post. We will be reviewing responses on this post for one month following Phase 3 (March 23, 2021). After March 23rd, please ask a new question to report any new issues.
