This morning I got one of those e-mails from HP informing me that they've "reviewed my article" on one of the niche sites, "and it looks great!"
...which is all well and good, I guess...except that the article in question was only moved to said niche site three days ago.
In the meantime, I've published two additional articles, and last I checked, both of those are still trapped in QAP purgatory waiting to be "featured."
So why are the Powers That Be bothering to "review" stuff that was published, featured, and niche'd (is that a word?) only a few days ago?
Why don'cha "review" my two newest pieces instead so they can begin their journey?
Just a minor beer-fueled rant. No offense intended, simply curious.
On another thread Paul was saying something about wanting to hire more editors. Well, that ought to help ease things out of purgatory. What kinda beer ya drinkin'?
Today it's been a mish-mosh of leftover stuff from previous beer runs hiding in the deep dark recesses of the beer fridge... a couple of Yuengling Lagers, and a Tyskie or two (very tasty Polish beer)... not sure what else I've got in the inventory at the moment, haha
Sweet! That reminds me, I need to check my beer funds. It's a thing called Paypal. LOL.
Reviews can be triggered by a few different paths. It's possible it was moved, and then you updated it and that triggered a review.
Editors work from multiple queues, but most new articles are getting reviewed within a few days and often a lot quicker than that.
More editors will help!
Didn't a group of around 10 new editors get hired about two weeks ago when we all welcomed them? I wrote a new hub four days ago which I was sure would go straight to a niche site. I also have been waiting for one I revamped to be moved to a niche site, and that's been in limbo for days. Both are written in my usual style and niches, and I'm shocked that have been sitting on HP all week. What are the new editors doing?

A couple of days ago I get an email from HubPages saying my hub had been reviewed and it was fine. This hub was moved to a niche site 2 weeks earlier. Why was it reviewed again. Are hubs chosen for review at random. I think this is the first time I got this kind of email.

I wish the editors would stop telling people to post on the forums to get their work proof-read!Most Hubbers are very happy to read an article and offer advice on how to improve it - we've done that for years. We can scan an article and spot "illegal" photos or links, dodgy...

Then I have to change them back again. Grrr!If thumbnails were displayed properly, it would be fine. But they're tiny, the selected image is tiny and can't be zoomed and captions can't be viewed while viewing the image. Overall it results in a bad reader experience.

OK, I've been around this site for a few years now, and by now I'm used to HP and their continual evolution to be a profitable site acceptable to Google. That's right, in case the rest of you didn't know this, HP and all such sites exist because they produce "fodder" for google to...

One of my articles on an HP niche site recently underwent the Premium Pro editing process. The editor decided to add about 800 words of her own research to supposedly "improve" my article. Personally, I hated the addition. I do not feel comfortable including other...

I am pretty insulted. Sorry, but it had to be said. I had written an article on here that had done really well. In fact, it was one of my top earners. I went to answer a comment on it, and I stared at it for at least five minutes. I no longer recognised it! The photos had been changed, the writing...
