What do you think about setting up something like the Stack Overflow Close Vote Reviewers chat room (SOCVR)? Aside from a recent surge in first posts, our close vote review queue has always been rather large. Every year or so, we see posts to clean it up:
- Clearing out the close review queue 2015
- Do we need a event to clear out the Close Queue?
- Shall we try and clean the close vote review queue to start the new year?
This has been suggested before, and IIRC, there is such a room, but inactive (and lacking publicity).
While having a room by itself is not the issue, the queue size is. It's been agreed repeatedly over the years that it's a problem and something needs to be done about it. Thoughts?
