Clear one decision at a time
Use the focused Training page instead of scanning a long list of review items.
Use case
The moderation queue is longer than the time you have.
Queue relief
Settle one real decision at a time.
Needs review holds only the decisions still waiting on you. Answer one and the count goes down. The tab counts attention owed, not history. When it says zero, nothing in Needs review is waiting for you.
