Question

bout 30-40% of images remain in the "For Review" folder during moderation

About 30-40% of images remain in the "For review" folder during moderation. That is, images are mostly not rejected or accepted.
For example, over the last 3 days
- 25 accepted
- 36 remained unverified
- 44 rejected.
during this time

 

the "For Review" folder  remained as unverified -


Yesterday I sent images for moderation.
1 image - accepted, the other 3 from this series remained in the folder as unverified.
Some series are not checked at all, for example, images with cotton, ceramics, emotions, a veterinarian, back pain.

the "Accepted" folder (during this time) -

I also noticed that gradually in the "For review" folder, older images, approximately in the middle, 10-20 pcs./day go to the "rejected" status. None of them are added to "accepted". But these are not the oldest images, but approximately from the middle. None of them are after that in "Accepted, passed moderation"

 

The print screens show that some images simply did not pass and, as experience shows, will never pass moderation in the future. And these are often very bright and interesting illustrations.

 

the "Rejected" folder (during this time) -


In the text, in the TITLE of all sent images, I write the first words: "AI photography, "

 

Some kind of strange game during moderation - not checking some of the images.

 

Please explain its rules.

 

Best wishes, Anita.

3 days is not a long waiting time! You will need to wait.

 

The title does not need to contain the "AI photography" keywords. You need to check the "generative AI" checkmark.

 

If you want to know why an asset has been rejected, you need to post the full resolution asset here (drag & drop area). But post only one or two, posting more wont help you, as participents will only superficially comment on your assets. By posting less, you get normally more accurate comments, and at the end of the day, the comments can be used for most of the other refusals.

My question is not "why rejected", but why some images are reviewed by the moderator and some are not.

I sent 100 images, and 40 of them will not be reviewed, and the moderator will review 60.

And the question is why he does not look at these 40.

It is logical that if the moderator reviews images for a certain period, he moderates all images for this period and either accepts or rejects.

My situation is such that he moderates only some of the images

Formerly, Adobe said, that assets would get moderated in an first in, first out manner. That is no more the case.

 

Today, evidence shows, that chunks of assets get allocated to a moderator, who moderates them. Other chunks need to wait for either getting a free slot, or are getting allocated to a moderator and then stay forgotten in the Nirwana. It's a total mess. 

 

You do not have an attributed moderator, but there are probably several hundred moderators taking care of the images. And if you are lucky all of your assets get moderated in the suggested 8 weeks waiting time.
