What are review queues?

Stack Overflow is moderated by you.

Review queues contain posts (also known as review tasks) that might need community attention, as determined by the system or other community users.

You see posts one at a time so that you can evaluate what, if any, action is needed. Each queue has a specific purpose, and you’ll gain access to more queues as you earn reputation on the site.

Learn more about review queues in our help center.

Skip tasks

There is nothing wrong with skipping through tasks. In fact, we encourage it. If you’re not familiar with a topic or just can’t confidently make a decision, select Skip and go on to the next task.

Daily review limit

You can review 20 tasks a day per queue (80 in larger queues).

Earn badges

You can earn the Custodian, Reviewer and Steward badges for completing tasks in each queue.
