No Status

Review still pending after three days

I submitted a review on Monday, 9 Feb and, despite the stated ETA being 10 Feb, three days later it is still pending.  Ref no is #260209-110231-755921.  Please approve.

There was nothing controversial about my review yet your triaging bot sent it for manual review, resulting in this unnecessary delay.  Time for your reviewing bot to be reviewed...

Totally agree. We do a completely altruistic work for the good of the database and to help others. The vast majority of reviewers fulfill their duties, but there are some, I suspect always the same one, who do not meet their obligation. What is the reason that the reviewer who delays or declines remains anonymous?

@Pmoran​: Exactly.  There's really no accountability or standard for the review moderators - they're free to decline reviews on a whim.  Last time I complained about two of my reviews being held up the moderator promptly declined them out of spite!  There was absolutely nothing wrong with them.A few days ago an approved review of mine suddenly disappeared.  Turned out someone had reported it, simply because they didn't like what I had to say about a show they're a fan of, and the moderator accepted their complaint and deleted my review!The other problem, as mentioned in my original post, is that the crappy bot is flagging reviews for manual review that should be automatically approved.  Absolutely nothing wrong with the review mentioned in my original post, no nasty words that would set off keyword alarms, no spoilers, yet it's now gone to review purgatory.

I can't understand that absolute lack of accountability for the review moderators. I try to contribute mainly to movie summaries for films that lack them. I haven't counted the approved contributions, but they are certainly more than a dozen, and it seems ridiculous to me that a contribution, which could help others, is dismissed without clearly stating which rule was violated or who made that decision.I think that discourages the desire to contribute and is a bad policy.
