Auto-approve for Katas

[shreedave0]

I have made 3 katas that are "Awaiting Approval" for a long time. One of them even has 95%+ satisfaction rate. So, I was wondering that as there is Auto-retire for katas, maybe there could be Auto-approve as well. Maybe if there are no open Issues, Suggestions or Questions and the satisfaction rate is above 90, then, it could be Auto-approved with the average rank. If there needs to be change in the description or something, then someone can just raise a Suggestion.

PS: just in case you want to approve the katas, they are here.

I approved one of your kata. The other two were only published a week ago, I would not call that "a long time". Getting more visibility can help with getting your kata approved. I suggest making use of the discord's reviewing channel to get more eyes on your kata. There are a lot of beta kata waiting to be approved or rejected and there are relatively few users on the site willing to approve or reject a kata outright even though many users have the ability to do it. The users that do regularly approve kata are often busy with other things as well, so the best way to get your kata approved is basically to ask for it directly, and the best place to do that is in the discord server.

As far as auto-approving goes, I don't know how willing the site would be to implement it. The approvability of a kata depends on more than just the user experience, and with all the quality issues with kata on the site already, I don't know if the mods would want to risk more issues slipping through the cracks. It's entirely possible that kata with unseen issues would be auto-approved, it's also possible that such a system could be gamed in less scrupulous ways.

Yeah, I agree.
