Hi all, what is the correct practice when editing closed Questions for reopening? There is a "this edit resolves the closed issue" checkbox on the editing page, and, separately, the usual "reopen ([#])" option beneath the closed Question. Which to opt for, or both?

I'm just wondering about (1) ticking the 'reopen queue' checkbox prior to edit submission, versus (2) clicking on that "Reopen" thingy in that "Share Cite Edit Follow Reopen(4) Delete(1) Flag" lineup. Does one pathway invalidate or interfere with the other, OR are they complementary separate pathways, OR are is one pathway a strict subset of of the other? Thanks!

Q: Is there a reason for >3k users to "Submit for review"?

TomerikooFollowing the latest Review queue workflows - Final release, we now have the option to decide if edits of closed questions should actually send it to the reopen votes queue or not (as was done automatically before for every edit). It looks like this: This is great, but it got me wondering - as a...

GlorfindelChecking that box will put the question in the Reopen Votes review queue, but it doesn't cast an actual reopen vote (one of the five/three necessary to reopen the question). If you want to reopen the question as soon as possible, you have to cast a separate reopen vote regardless. Perhaps this co...

LaurelI think it shows a diff to reopen reviewers when you select this option versus just casting a reopen vote. See this review with a diff for an example. (I think Glorfindel is right: you need to cast a reopen vote because the system won't do it for you. In this example, the user who edited went on ...

Q: It should be possible to make edits after casting a reopen vote not count toward the reopen review

Franck DernoncourtWhen submitting an edit after casting a reopen vote, the checkbox "This edit resolves the original close reason and the question should be considered for reopening" can't be unchecked: Feature request: Allow users to uncheck "This edit resolves the original close reason and the question should ...

A: It should be possible to make edits after casting a reopen vote not count toward the reopen review

Laurel What often happens is that reviewers only see the minor edit and review to leave closed This isn't what happens, at least not with the current system. At the top of the review, it shows a list of the edit summaries that were made since closure. Underneath is a diff that is a combination of all ...

@TheAmplitwist I seem to have missed a few on Computational Science, Software Engineering, Computer Science, Linguistics, and Project Management. I've suggested edits on these sites, and they are awaiting approval.
I've also left comments on Seasoned Advice, Japanese Language, TeX - LaTeX, User Experience, and History of Science and Mathematics. This should take care of all the "small" cases, except for Computational Science, which I'll take a look at next.
@TheAmplitwist Since Physics is done, I'll probably move on to Skeptics after Computational Science.
