STOP! Look and Listen

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.

  2. Many tests seem to be unclear or at least prone to ambiguous actions, creating a good deal of backlash.

  3. A bug exists 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.
