@CodyGray Yeah, if it was happening for me, I would have already looked into it, as it sounds like it's incredibly annoying. Unfortunately, you're right that it's going to be difficult for me to determine whatever the issue is and fix it without being able to reproduce it.
@Ethan You are replying because you also experience the problems that tripleee and I described with the MetaSmoke website? Or something else unrelated?

@JeffSchaller That pattern may be a North American number. If it is, please use a format which starts with an optional 1 followed by possible separator text and has the main number in the format 845-385-5080 where - could be a single alpha character or any [\W_]*+. Alternately, you can add the comment (?#IS NorAm) to the end of the pattern to force also using the alternate normalized form, or (?#NO NorAm) if it's not a North American phone number and it's incorrectly recognized as one. Perhaps try !!/blacklist-number 845-385-5080. Append -force to the command word(s) if you really want to add the pattern you provided.
@tripleee Yeah, sorry, I should have been more clear. I'd just made a change on MS and deployed it. The change altered which CDN was being used for one of the JavaScript resources, highlight.js, because the CDN which was being used didn't get cached. I'd hoped, but not expected, that the change might have helped with the problem you're seeing. On my end, it's really the only thing that wasn't performing as expected/intended, but definitely wasn't costing all that much time for me.

There was a moderator video chat today, and SE staff talked at length about what Charcoal has done for the community. The efforts of this room do not go unnoticed, but public acknowledgement is less common than it should be. If you regularly contribute here, thank you for your efforts.

@Ethan Off the top of my head, I'd assume that no work had been done on how to handle things when an SE site is taken down. OTOH, that the site was taken down doesn't inherently mean there aren't any review tasks still open for posts which were recorded for that site.
I went through the existing items that were in the queue and applied relevant feedback (there were 3, and only 1 "uncompleted" item was in there after I was done, it's now completed).
@Makyen It looks like Spevacus reviewd it and I also did it so I don't think there are any left in the queue. THough that does make sense since this isn't really importent
The general case would be to have that site dropdown selector indicate how many reviews are available for each site and, perhaps, sort them into two buckets (alpha sort those with reviews followed by alpha sort of those without reviews), with, perhaps, allowing the user to select a # of reviews available sort. I'm not sure we would want to actually exclude any sites that have ever existed from the list, as we'd want someone to be able to discover the site if they were looking for it.
