Yikes! disappearing reviews Posted by sulriel October 04, 2006 - 13:58:46 Topic ID# 7479
I jumped back into reviewing this morning after catching up with
some RL stuff and had a wierd thing happen.

I reviewed two of GA's stories, finalized the reviews then refreshed
the main screen - and they were gone.

logged in as myself, I show that she has 14 stories nominated and
that I've reviewed four of them (NOT including the two I reviewed
this morning). It did say 16 this morning and the two disappeared
off my list after I reviewed them. BUT the four I reviewed in the
past are still there. - I know that the finalized reviews are
posted to the public once a week, but shouldn't I still be able to
see the ones I've put in?

when I log in as admin, I see that she has 17 stories nominated,
including the two I reviewed this morning, but my reviews aren't
being displayed, either in the finalized count or the draft or
hidden and I don't see any kind of 'pending' display for the reviews
that become available once a week.

have I broken something or am I simply very confused. ? :(

Sulriel,

Three of her stories are on your 'skip' list. They are:

Alas, for the dying of the trees

Work Detail

Jewel.

Two of these have reviews attached, and I assume are the ones you reviewed this morning.

I wonder if you didn't choose a status (draft/hidden/final) and somehow it chose the wrong one for you, and set it to 'skip'.

For now, you (all of you) should look at your 'skip list' by going to the story filter and filtering for stories you have reviewed and choosing 'skip' to see if there are any on that list that you have reviewed. Even though it says 'enter new review', if you click on it, your review is there. Nothing has been lost, it's just that the wrong status has been assigned.

I'll try to look at the code tonight and see if I can tell what's up, and fix it.

I'll also skim the database for stories that have review text, but have status = skip. Those are probably not supposed to be so, like yours.

Finally, for those of you who are liaisons or categorizers, I'll see what I can do to clean up the action list on the right hand side of the story browse page. There's way too much stuff there, and some of it is just worded poorly, or shouldn't be there because it doesn't make sense. I'll check for regular users as well.

Later,
Anthony

Well, are you certain you clicked in the second screen: save validated
review instead of preview? I know that sometimes in a hurry you can
forget that. Because the order you are describing here is that the
system takes you to the main menu after you saved your validated review
instead of refreshing it yourself.

The finalised reviews are posted daily now ;) But yes. Try out some
filters. Maybe you saved them as hidden or drafts. That might explain
that they are no longer on the wish list.

There is no pending diplay, when you click on reviews now and you go to
the last page, you can see your finalised reviews immediately.

Well, maybe you forgot to press save validated review... That's my only
guess for now. If not Anthony can have a look at it.

Good luck

ok- then I did just confuse myself.

I initially put all the stories on either a skip or wish list, but
then have moved some off the wish list if I wanted to skip them but
maybe come back to them later, and so I started adding the ones I
finalized the reviews on to the skip list so they wouldn't show back
up in the main list. and it looks like I was away for too long and
crossed my wires ...


...note to myself: no reviewing before the second cup of coffee
each morning.

- sorry for the confusion

Oh. That makes sense.

You did the review, saved it, then before you refreshed, you hit the
'wish' link (which would have disappeared if you refreshed first). I'm
using the 'status' field to hold wish/skip/draft/hidden/final, so you
changed the status from 3 (final) or 2 (hidden) to -1 (wish).

I have edited the 'wish' and 'skip' page, so it won't change a
'draft/hidden/final'. It puts up a note saying to close the window and
refresh the page with the skip or wish link. That should stop this from
happening again.

Sulriel, I just looked through the database to see if there were any
others that had Skip or Wish, and had something in the review text. All
of these are yours. You should go check the reviews for these 4
stories.
