• The moderation queue has been refactored:
  • Submissions can now be put On Hold by a moderator, which will move the submission to a separate moderation queue page. It's possible to automatically post a comment when doing so, asking the submitter for more information.
  • Instead of having one page for every type of edits (album, tracklist, scans, website, etc) the moderation queue now has an Album and Artist page, and changes are grouped by entry.
  • Album and artist pages will feature an header if the entry is pending or has pending edits. (Issue #371)
    This view is different depending on the permissions of the user:
    - Guests just see an header mentioning there are pending changes.
    - Users see more details about the submitter and what fields were edited.
    - Moderators can see more details, including submission comments, and they're able to quickly moderate all edits with a button. The header is collapsed by default and can be expanded by clicking on it.
  • Default tracklist rejections are reverted correctly. (Issue #404)
  • Added a select all box to quickly moderate more edits at once. (Issue #305)
