Question

Mass "Technical Quality" rejections for Jigsaw Sudoku & portfolio count drop

Hello everyone,!--tgqphd|[]-->

I am an experienced Adobe Stock contributor (portfolio of ~7,900 assets) with a clean compliance history.!--tgqphd|[]-->

Recently, all my new batches of non-AI, manually created Jigsaw-Sudoku puzzles have been completely rejected for "Quality Problems" issues (e.g., File ID: 2036527278).!--tgqphd|[]-->

These assets are high-resolution digital graphics (PNG format), perfectly sharp, with no noise or compression artifacts. They are unique vector-generated grids, not automated duplicates. I suspect this might be an automated filter glitch or a keyword misinterpretation.!--tgqphd|[]-->

Additionally, my public portfolio count suddenly dropped from 7,900 to 7,899 without any notification.!--tgqphd|[]-->

I have attached an example of the rejected file below. Has anyone faced similar mass rejections for vector/graphic puzzles lately? Could a community manager or moderator please look into this or advise if there is an issue with the automated review system?!--tgqphd|[]-->

Thank you for your help!
P.S. 

Metadata used for this asset:!--tgqphd|[]-->!--tgqphd|[]-->

  • Title:!--tgqphd|[]--> Medium Jigsaw Sudoku Puzzle Printable Worksheet with Answer Key, Set 1 Puzzle 10, perfect for puzzle book interiors, adult brain training, educational math worksheets, and logic game lovers!--tgqphd|[]-->!--tgqphd|[]-->
  • Keywords:!--tgqphd|[]--> jigsaw sudoku, irregular sudoku, big digits, medium sudoku, sudoku puzzle, math puzzle worksheet, answer key, sudoku puzzle grid, solved puzzle, sudoku with solution, sudoku answer key, solution sheet, correct answers, answer included, red digits, number puzzle, numerical puzzle, math puzzle, math game, logic puzzle, logic game, brain training, brain game, mind game printables, printable puzzle sheet, brain training worksheet, mental exercise worksheet, puzzle book page, puzzle book asset, workbook page, activity books, game sheet, activity sheet, logic lovers, medium level, set 1 puzzle 10, numerical matrix, deduction, grid, strategy game, cognitive task, intellectual challenge, sequence, pattern, mathematical riddle, logic test, recreational math, adult puzzle, mental fitness
     

    Note: I now realize the keywords might look repetitive to the automated system, and I am fully ready to clean them up and remove any serial numbers like "Set 1 Puzzle 10" if that caused the glitch.!--tgqphd|[]-->!--tgqphd|[]-->!--tgqphd|[]-->

    Is ChatGPT really necessary to create this post? 🫤

    Also, this post belongs in the Contributor’s forum below, not Stock.

    Keep in mind, this isn’t a puzzle site. It’s a global assets service for people to source pictures, videos and vector graphics to use in commercial projects. 

     

    You have too many keywords. 5 to 20 relevant keywords is all you need.

    Titles should not exceed 70 characters. See below for more tips.

    Compare your work with current Stock inventory. Is your work really better than what Stock is selling?  Remember, people are buying images, not puzzles

    If Adobe saw fit to remove your assets, it’s because they don’t meet current quality standards. Read your Contributor User Guide for more details.

     

    Hope that helps.
