It’s weird, Spell Checker is normally stormy skies, but it has none left, and basically everything is sunny! And tips patrol has gone altogether! What’s happening?

For Tips Patrol, the backlog got switched around with another tool called Quality Guardian because of a new feature. For spellchecker a lot of users are working on the backlog, so there is less to do.
Actually Catmad1148, Tips Patrol isn’t gone. It’s just been moved to a different place on the screen. Look below the “More Things to Do” section to find Tips Patrol. However, the way Tips are being patrolled has recently changed and so number should be improving quite quickly. As for Spell checker: It’s improving too. About two weeks ago, it has/had 18000 articles to spellcheck. Upon closer examiniation of this app from the Dashboard, you’ll see the number is “until goal”. Don’t worry. Quality trumps quantity for all edits you make. Everything being sunny? Ha! Video Picker has over 86,000+ videos to review and patrol. Quality Guardian (which is placed at the top of the page has two processes and Tips will now be initially patrolled through there (and aren’t counted in the Dashboard as of yet), so some of these apps/tools are still not doing so good. Oh yes, before I forget: let’s try over 400,000+(another “goal” designation on the Dashboard to make people not feel overwhelmed) articles to begin/write in the Answer Requests app…the list goes on and on and on…there are many places any visitor can help out with at any time.
Oh… right. Sunnier than usual, anyway.
That’s a shame, because I liked Tips Patrol a lot!
Tips Patrol still exists and does the same thing it did before, it just got moved to a different spot on the screen. Basically, there were just a few internal changes for the two systems that should make the backlog for each shorter.
