User blog:Mr.Zalgopasta/The Needs Editing Category Needs Work

Hello my many minions,

There are a couple of issues I'd like to address about the Needs Editing category.

1) One week's time before the page gets deleted is WAY too long a time from the time the category is added to the time the story is actually deleted. I personally feel as if we should keep the Needs Editing category, but adopt the 3-Days-or-it's-deleted method of the Marked for Deletion category. There's really no reason to bitch about your page getting deleted in three days. For one thing, three days is plenty of time to edit your story. Second, if you really cared so much you would: a) protest having Needs Editing added to your page and b) work on your story so that the category could be removed.

Now for the poll.

Should we change the time-of-deletion from one week to three days for the Needs Editing category? Yes No

Poll expires in three days.

Now for the second issue...

2) Maybe it's just me, but I find it annoying beyond belief to see edits after the Needs Editing categoy is added with no summary of the edit. If there is no specification of what the edit was, it will be henceforth treated as if the edit wasn't even performed. The same applies to an edit summary of a vague nature (using the words "slightly", "some", etc.)

Thank you for your time.
