Your vote counts! Help us with the review queue.

The review queue can be found in the centre of the Freebase homepage, below the newsfeed, if you’re logged in. It looks like this:

The number of review items grew to 900+ recently but is slowly starting to come down again now. Why did it grow so high? The main reason was that we were only acting on votes once a day, so things got clogged up. We’ve now increased that frequency to every hour, so your votes should get cleared and acted on much more quickly.

If you’ve got a few moments to spare, go check the queue and vote on a few topics. This is important because it’s how we resolve requests for topic deletion and merge. We really need to keep on top of them!

    I got through 100 earlier today, which is great, but now when I go back in it is asking me to start all over. Should this be happening?

    No, it shouldn’t! I’ve logged it as a bug in Jira.
