Whom do you care about more?

Infinite Recursion

@Frank we judge every post and then cast our cv....unless you see it's a clear "rec-tool" or "unclear", don't flag it. I almost never ever cv a "duplicate" or "typo" cv-request, they require technical knowledge and domain knowledge to judge them, which I lack in many languages

@InfiniteRecursion well, now I have only 4 flags waiting for review, instead of 23.

unless somebody comment-answered, that is

Infinite Recursion

@Frank nice :)

@Frank But at what cost?

4:01 AM

CV whatever needs to be CV'd finally return. NIGHT!

Infinite Recursion

even if someone comments or answers, I still judge the validity

@Frank I don't know, I have raised thousands of flags....can't navigate and see what is waiting...I think the tons of flags I raised for plagiarism might be waiting

Thanks :D

@InfiniteRecursion I have only a few flags, mostly comments, cv, some naa, spam, offensive.

But then, I spend most of my time on GL.

Infinite Recursion

@Frank yes indeed

@Doorknob All edited (except for one that was actually kinda funny) and one even downvoted.

also, get marshal gold on Drupal at 101, like Jan :)

^ Lol; that's one of my goals, too.

do they have a lot of "accept rate" comments?

@Rafflesiaarnoldii Ooh, I'll go check.

Now I know what's the meaning of life ;-)

user259867

And 21 for acceptance rate

user259867

It is to be accepted.

4:40 AM

The meaning of... half-life?

Infinite Recursion

@TGMCians done

I can only flag 14 comments on drupal. I really haven't done much there.

user259867

That's how it begins. But since all these are helpful, next day you have more. And so on...

Infinite Recursion

^^

@Rafflesiaarnoldii yup.

Infinite Recursion

4:47 AM

also, it doesn't disturb your OCD :P

@Frank keep them for spam

user259867

Those are comment flags, a separate thing.

Infinite Recursion

comment flags can't be used on spam

@JanDvorak I have other flags for spam...

@Rafflesiaarnoldii how come?

user259867

4:48 AM

The counts are separate. Try flagging a post and a comment on the same site.

Infinite Recursion

Yes, like I have 200 flags per day on SO, 100 for posts, 100 for comments

TIL

But I may miss it cause I have to wake up for work in 5 3/4 hours, so am planning on going to bed soon.

is there a delete vote review queue

i forget how this all works its been a while

Oh, found it

user259867

5:42 AM

Found it? Where?

@Rafflesiaarnoldii Review -> Tools -> Delete (10k tools)

But I don't really understand how to interpret the info and the help center doesn't seem to describe it.

When it says "3 Some Question (1)", what is the 3 and the 1?

... And how do I cast a delete vote on an answer? o.O

delete vote for answer needs 20k, if I'm not mistaken

user259867

@JasonC X [Title] (Y) means: the post has Y delete votes on it, and X more are needed to kill it.

user259867

Most of the time, X+Y=3, but it can be greater if there are highly upvoted answers.

@Rafflesiaarnoldii I just voted on a "3 [Title] (1)" and it became deleted.

Also the post page itself said it had 9 delete votes.

5:49 AM

@JasonC From Trusted User

> Voting to delete answers with score of -1 or lower

@AndrewT. Ah thanks; I just saw an answer with a positive score in the 10k review delete queue, but I guess they don't really do that logic to filter the queue.

user259867

I got the order wrong. X Title (Y) means: there are X votes already, Y remain to be deleted.

user259867

I don't know why the page showed 9. :-?

Infinite Recursion

@JanDvorak Why blacklist that username?

Also, this is finally closed

spam gone

user259867

@JasonC If it's on that page, it means there is a delete vote on it. One possibility is that the answer was upvoted after the vote was cast. The other is that the vote was cast by a 20K user from LQ review. This is possible because the review processes NAA flags along with VLQ.

@InfiniteRecursion why not?

user259867

5:54 AM

However, the votes will not actually lead to deletion if the answer score is positive: a mod flag is raised instead.

user259867

5:59 AM

After reviewing the review documentation, it seems that for positively scored answers, pressing "Delete" from the queue is just a recommendation (not a real vote), even if you have 20K. So the answer was probably upvoted after getting a delete vote.

Strictly speaking, 10K delete tab is not a queue at all. It's just a random list that on large sites is mostly pointless under 20K, because it's full of stuff you can't yet vote to delete.
