As a reviewer, what are the stat definitions?
Currently, there are six available stats:
1. Reviews completed today measures the number of Staging Ground questions you reviewed today out of the daily maximum of 50.
2. Reviewer activity rank measures your Staging Ground activity rank out of the top 50 reviewers. Your rank is refreshed daily using your activity from the last 30 days. Activity is defined as applying eligible reviewer actions including “edit post”, “approve and post on main site”, “conditionally approve with minor edits”, “require major changes”, “vote as off-topic”, “vote as duplicate”, and “decline request for re-evaluation”. If your rank is not in the top 50, this stat will not be visible to you.
3. Total askers helped measures the total number of new askers you have helped with your reviews in Staging Ground out of the total number of askers helped by all reviewers.
4. Total approved questions measures the total number of Staging Ground questions you approved out of the total number of questions approved by all reviewers.
5. Question survival rate measures the percentage of Staging Ground questions you approved that were not closed nor deleted within their first 7 days of appearing on the main site, during the last 30 days.
6. Question success rate measures the percentage of Staging Ground questions you approved that were not closed nor deleted on the main site, and received an answer or a question score of +2, during the last 30 days.
Additionally, clicking the info icon beside the name of the stat will display the definition.
As a reviewer, why am I not seeing any stats?
Stats are displayed based on your recent and current activity levels. They will be available once you have some activity which includes reviewing posts and applying review actions. Once you have enough activity, your stats will be displayed in the right sidebar on the Staging Ground homepage.
As an asker, why am I not seeing any stats?
Currently, stats are only available to reviewers who participate in Staging Ground. In the future, we will explore displaying stats that are most relevant and applicable to askers.
How often are stats updated?
Reviewer stats are updated daily. Some stats rely on your activity from the last 30 days. As you continue participating in Staging Ground, your metrics will update, check back often to see your impact.
Within the widget, what do the colored arrows mean?
For applicable stats, reviewers will see a colored arrow beside each metric.
Green arrows represent an increase in the stat compared to the last 30 days. Gray arrows represent a decrease in the stat compared to the last 30 days. Dark brown arrows represent a neutral (neither positive nor negative) change in the stat compared to the last 30 days.
As a reviewer, can I request additional stats to include?
