Apr 6, 2021 at 7:58 | comment | added | Stefan Kohl Mod | What I noticed is that there is a steady stream of questions with no positive and no negative feedback which after a year fall victim to auto-deletion, in a part of the cases likely just due to inappropriate tagging. -- I sometimes went through the list of such questions to see which of them could be improved and should be brought back to attention, and edited and sometimes upvoted them. | |
Apr 6, 2021 at 7:58 | comment | added | Stefan Kohl Mod | As to my experience with reviewing -- there are not much surprising things to be said in general. I didn't make a statistics -- but as likely everyone would expect, a part of the posts appearing in the review queues is good as they are, another part of the posts are good after some polishing or clarification, and yet another part cannot be rescued (e.g. calculus homework, and sometimes spam). Over the years I became more careful with my judgments as to which questions can perhaps still be 'repaired' and be made on-topic, and which really cannot. | |
Apr 6, 2021 at 1:01 | comment | added | Tim Campion | @StefanKohl You are an extremely experienced reviewer of posts on MO, which is fantastic! Could you say a few words about this? What sorts of concerns are at the forefront of your mind when reviewing posts? Has your approach evolved over the years? What have you learned from this work? | |
