Duration or requirements for approval of uploaded logs

[Christian Michel]

Hi everyone,

I see that occasionally logs are not approved and processed that I submitted. Interestingly I had uploaded two logs yesterday which are already approved, but the one from a week ago is still waiting to be approved and processed. Are there certain guidelines that speak against approving certain logs? Or has it just fallen between the cracks? This is for log 34891.

Thanks,
Christian

Hi Christian-

There’s no specific time for this, we have a number of volunteer moderators working on it all the time but depending on the queue and how many things are coming in and who has time to approve things it can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, stay tuned and it’ll process sooner or later. Thanks!

Hi Sean,

yes, I know that this is handled by volunteers and I really appreciate all the work that is being done here by this incredible group!

I simply had expected that the logs would be processed in the order of submission which made we wonder when my much newer logs were processed ;-). It has finally been approved now.

Thanks again and keep up the good work,
Christian

Ah, it’s actually backwards so moderators see the most recent submission first, not the oldest..
