After I waited enough time to evaluate the change, I can say this: I hate the Community bot comments from the review queues!
You can't contact the reviewers to ask them about their decisions if you need, but the worse is that the OPs cannot contact them in cases where they actually fix the things mentioned in the bot comments or they need help with anything else!
BTW, I found out that many of my close votes have been invalidated due to not many users having reviewed them (for example the dupes I have linked above). The Close Votes queue looks really bad. To me it shows 429 posts needing review. I guess there are many votes that get invalidated every day.
What can we do? I can handle the Suggested Edits queue (which also started having many posts needing review), since improving them removes the posts from the queue, but the Close Votes need at least 5 votes.
It seems that we lack the person-power (I don't know if this is a valid gender-agnostic term).
@Zanna I'm not sure. I don't know if something like this has been done before. There could be two ways of calling for help. Either a meta post describing the problem we have now with the Close Votes queue and a call for a spree for, let's say 2 weeks, so we can clear the queue, or call the most frequent reviewers here and state the problem here.
@Zanna Sure. In every case, close-voting should be coordinated from here, by sharing links to posts needing to be closed, so we don't end up having many random posts with a few votes.
strangely, yesterday I went all the way through the posts in Late Answers and First Questions|Answers queues looking for audits to test something (unfortunately I didn't actually review many of them), and there were only a few posts in each... that's normal for Late Answers, but I expected First Questions to be a lot more full
@Zanna Oh, it's about these suggestions. I'm not sure if someone could feel pressured or anything to do things in a specific way. That's why I wonder if they are stupid (perhaps naive is better) or wrong.
@RandomPerson In general, I don't think old meta posts should be edited unless they are relevant to now, but anyway what I meant was, you could have a look and see if there are questions that really need something changed and then post about them here. I don't really have time to look into that myself (I consider it less important than, say, trying to get the review queues down to size or cleaning up tags), but if you want to you can go for it.
