@XavierCombelle no point closing it. You can just let it go, there's no harm in asking unpopular questions on Meta. There is question ban, but it's far more flexible than on SO, and takes lots of "effort" to reach it.
@YvetteColomb yup, would be happy to see both with permanent review ban.
Problem is, they are not robo reviewers, just bad reviewers. No automated system can catch those, so they are the worst. They actually believe they are reviewing in a good way, while they are not.
Glad I no longer take part in the suggested edits review on SO - it became a joke with such reviewers approving total crap.
(Since they became the majority, no point trying to help, not until there is mass review ban of hundreds of those.)

I like to click Improve or Reject and Edit. Then it's not a joke, I get to make the decision.
The Apple Watch Series 3 ships on 22 September. $329/£329 without cellular connection, and $£399 with. The Apple TV 4k ships on 22 September, at $£179. The iPhone 8 starts at $£699 for 64GB and the iPhone 8 plus $£799, shipping on 22 September. And the iPhone X (that’s “iPhone Ten”, if you want to be one of those people who calls a gif a jif) starts at $£999, and will be available for pre-order from 27 October, shipping on 3 November.

Hm. Maybe not using R&E as often as I imagined... today's haul was "7 Approve; 6 Reject; 6 Improve Edit; 1 Reject and Edit"
@Shog9 the chat bubble icon with a stapler on it, i.e.: the review queue icon, has the cabernet colored circle on it again. There was a short period where I was no longer in the test group. Now I'm back, apparently.
Or does it light up when a particular queue is full to a certain threshold?
This. Currently the thresholds are based on 90% of the max hourly value over the past couple weeks (test is done, thresholds now aspirational - see below); we'll adjust those based on the initial test results in an e...
@canon Not really. Only a small fraction of reviewers in the test, didn't move the needle much. Usual "new shiny" bump then fall-off, though not to the extreme depths of earlier in the year.
As I said in my update, the big win is prioritization: suggested edits piling up are a lot more critical than, say, Late Answers (which low-rep users can clear out fast anyway).
@Shog9 I wonder how much of this is people in the test just clicking those red dots looking for explanations of what the hell the unexplained red dots mean. I'll be curious to see more graphs once this has had some time.
@Shog9 Sorry I'm not motivated to help out in those queues. I know they're a mess. :(
@canon yeah, checking back in a month or so should be interesting
@canon eh; don't stress. There are TONS of people who can help; if even half of them did one or two reviews a day there'd be no problem. Big thing is awareness. Few people doing tons of work doesn't last; folks burn out.
If I recall correctly, most of the non-JavaScript questions under that tag were related to Flash development. And those should probably just be tagged ActionScript.
If you want to talk about ECMAScript 5, then introduce a ecmascript-5 tag. Like it or not, in the common parlance ECMAScript is Jav...
You'll note that there are indeed versioned tags for ecmascript
@ShaWizDowArd do you think I did the wrong thing - using that as an example and calling out the reviewers on meta? there's some references to pitch forks in the comments O.O

@Telkitty I dreamt (in my short sleep last night) that we flew to NZ together and back again. lolololol
