It's very unusual for my published hubs to take more that 5hrs before being approved and featured: My last published hub has taken close to 24hrs; of which I know I should not be worried until the 24hr time frame elapses; however, this worries me cause the hub has no revision message or something of the sort ! Anyone experiencing the same delay? Or what could be the contributing factors to the hub approval delay? Assist please
There could also be a backload from the long weekend.
LOL; so our quality assessment system is jammed - let me hope it will be featured in the next remaining 3hrs
My last few hubs have taken 24 hours which is nothing new. I was surprised to seem some that were done within a few hours.
I think it is just temporary glitch. Mine still under "pending" after more than 17 hours.
I guess there should be no need to worry. Most of my hubs took more than 12 hours before being approved. And some even took more than 20 hrs!
hello,am new here and about to write my first post /hubs ,hope it will be approved.
I noticed it taking longer than normal too. Figured it was because of all the Squidoo content coming.

Why do non-featured Hubs rejoin the pending queue when edited?I have one non-featured hub and anytime I edit it, it gets put back in the pending queue. Why is that? It doesn't happen with any of my other hubs, which all happen to be featured.

I published a new Hub yesterday which as of this writing, is still "pending" and has not been featured. I noticed when I first hit "publish" that the "You've published another hub!" info box with all of the relevant links/etc. now says that the Quality Assessment...

Some people have asked why do some Hubs go directly to featured. We are working on ways to get more Hubs featured as quickly as we can and are testing mechanisms for doing it. Right now, there are a small number of Hubbers where our system can process their Hubs immediately based on...

I have a hub published over 24 hours ago.......but the hub is still pending (Little House). However, a hub I published this morning is already reviewed and featured. The one that is still pending is getting a lot of views so I'm anxious for it to go on through. I'm not sure...
