Hi @ErmesT
To understand and compare our data concerning approval speed I took the liberty to pull your data and create a graph similar to mine:
This is based on your roads submitted on March 11th and March 16th. I conclude that 68% (2 out of 3) of your approved roads are approved within the first 4 days. This can be compared to my 2 out of 3 in the first 2 days. See my updated graph in the reply just above this reply.
It seems your roads are approved a bit slower than mine and it keeps dripping for longer. But we are in the same ballpark.
Things might change when we have more data, but I doubt the conclusions will change much.
Now to the approval rates.
OH BOY! it would be difficult to say that we are anywhere close to being comparable.
Here are my latest data:
| 3/4/2024 | 32 | 66 | 48% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3/5/2024 | 42 | 181 | 23% |
| 3/6/2024 | 76 | 249 | 31% |
| 3/7/2024 | 48 | 158 | 30% |
| 3/8/2024 | 28 | 111 | 25% |
| 3/9/2024 | 28 | 109 | 26% |
| 3/10/2024 | 54 | 175 | 31% |
| 3/11/2024 | 31 | 101 | 31% |
| 3/14/2024 | 55 | 213 | 26% |
| 3/15/2024 | 57 | 191 | 30% |
| 3/16/2024 | 18 | 112 | 16% |
| 3/17/2024 | 33 | 154 | 21% |
| 3/18/2024 | 13 | 74 | 18% |
| 3/19/2024 | 4 | 18 | 22% |
Columns:
1: Date of submission
2: # approved edits
3: # submitted edits
4: Approval rate
As you can see all my efforts to learn and improve my approval rate only increased from 24% to maybe 30%! So 7 out of 10 of my read edits are rejected.
As I already alerted to here, this is far below what I hoped for.
I would love to get to the bottom of why I’m unable to push the approval rate further up. But before we start the guessing game and hopefully come up with some relevant tests we can do, I think we need to reflect more and come up with some possible overall explanations.
There is still some time to wait for the final numbers to come in, but I will not reach anything comparable to what you guys @ErmesT @Rednewt74 and @MarcoDavoli consistently report on approval percentages.
All the best
