Title: Option for mods to "request more info" rather than reject/resubmit
Post by: matt on September 15, 2016, 05:14:59 AM
I have had a few addition rejected, only to find it was a mod mistake after I send them photos of the item or provide extra information.

It would be nice if they had the option to "request more information" to avoid having to submit the same item multiple times

they should be sending you a PM along with the rejection to explain why it was rejected, but maybe this would be better with a change in policy? it would be simpler for staff to simply send the PM first to discuss the issue they have with it, then if it turns out the submission is correct they can approve it without needing it to be resubmitted.

it would be nice to have the option you mentioned as well, i just think staff doing things like i mentioned above might be a good hold over until they can implement that feature.

I think either would be an improvement. Cheers

I always send a PM first if I need more information, but it's not always apparent that there's missing information.

if your submission could be mistaken for something already in the database you can always add a comment when you submit explaining the difference

that's a good point, i've used that before, even if only to mention that i will be submitting scans after it's approved.

I've started doing that also.

I should also offer to add photos if the mod can't find any information on the item online.

Cheers
