Dear moderators this message is for you. Some weeks ago there was a hike in the number of audits conducted in the review queue. Unfortunately it has created more problems than it solved, more specifically:

1. Audits have become a large share of the review tasks, in my case [about one third of the review tasks are tests](http://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/8569/tests-are-now-one-third-of-review-tasks).

2. Many tests seem to be unclear or at least prone to ambiguous actions, creating [a good deal of backlash](http://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/tagged/audits).

3. [A bug exists](http://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/8622/broken-review-test) that allows users to identify tests - clicking on *edit* in a test brings up the message "This post is deleted [sic]". I am now able to avoid all audits using the *edit* button.

In light of these problems I would suggest the following procedure:

1. Suspend review audits immediately.

2. Fix the bug with the *edit* button to prevent users from identifying audits.

3. Remove all ambiguous tests.

4. Re-introduce bug-fixed audits but on a lighter volume, say, one test per twenty reviews.

Stop. Look and Listen. The audit system is not working properly.
