Thanks, and excellent job. I sent an alert to you about two of these reports just now where the person read your request for attention several days ago and there wasn't a response.

Hey guys,
We're at about 400 reports now - not in terrible shape, but it was going really well there when we were able to maintain under 200 for a while, solving issues really quickly and having the queue feel very manageable. If anyone happens to have time to work on a few, it would help out a lot and would of course be appreciated. Cheers.

I was trying to nibble at it, but visitor reports with broken links really gums up the process.

Thanks for grabbing some of those. We're down about 75 now, so it's been awesome progress. Yeah - reports that are unclear, have no evidence, dead links, etc. can be closed. If it seems very important, sometimes I'll research it for a couple of minutes, but definitely don't want to have them taking up a lot of space in there, or to waste a ton of time on something that 'might' be factual information worth updating of a random band of no particular interest. It could be asked of the reporter to enter in a new report with proper information by users able to request their attention. If a report is waiting on the attention of someone and no further action can be taken until a response arrives, if you wouldn't mind checking back on it at a later date, feel free to take assignment for it in the interest of keeping the main queue from becoming swamped. Really appreciate the effort in getting the number down over the last several hours.

Precisely, that's one of my questions. For those obscure and unknown bands that have no social media or mention of information anywhere else, that get a report from a visitor that uses "I am the singer" as a source, what should we do? I believe we really shouldn't be splitting hairs on that, since there are no ways to contact a band or to verify if that's correct, in some cases.

Use your common sense on those. Most of them are more than likely legit reports.

Unassigned reports are down to 261 - roughly 140 taken care of in the last 11 hours. Incredible job, guys !!!!!

Yea well I did 80 of them today, and counting.

Damn, excellent job man.
