Looking for feedback or a re-review of this post.
post #7463537I believe that this should meet quality standards and is sufficiently tagged. By quality, I'm talking about it in comparison to other posts of the same nature (character/copyright) that have active status.
IMO it's the boob on the left. It looks awkwardly attached as if it's a bubble.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong with these posts?

Would like to appeal the following post. This post follows the artist's usual style so I think it should qualify to be on the site. This is also in comparison to other works of similar quality currently active on the site as well as works from the same artist themselves. Uploaded this to match and complete their collection of the character in the post.
post #7457135
It currently also has a child post that's deleted and marked as a pixel-perfect duplicate (post #7468799). Both posts have accumulated a number of votes too, may want to transfer those.
Or looking for feedback on why either were rejected if the quality, after everything, still doesn't meet standards.
Looking for some feedback on some posts and why they were deleted. I imagine that the reason has a lot to do with only accepting the superior post and not approving the inferior post, though it does affect my upload limit and is weird on consistency with superior posts being uploaded after inferior ones were. I understand that approvals are relatively selective and subjective though. Below are the posts I'm looking for feedback on and what I assume are the deletion reasons, which if correct, I don't really agree with?
post #7449320 -> Inferior post to post #7449066 (Twitter vs Pixiv)
post #7449327 -> Alternate version of post #7444186 (I imagine rejection is due to only background change)
post #7449333 -> Don't really understand the deletion reason here, is it the art style?
post #7457230 -> Ditto with above.
post #7471122 -> Inferior post to post #7482474 (Twitter vs Pixiv; latter is still pending)
Posts with deletions potentially related to art style confuse me a bit especially when compared to other approved uploads which I use as my basis for what styles are acceptable, in spite of subjectivity (post #7467400, post #7421108, post #7386729, post #7343390, post #6959426, post #7199114 as a large list of examples, some being simple rough sketch outlines only).

You uploaded the inferior Twitter post after the Pixiv version, which makes it a duplicate and approvers won't approve those.

The approver should approve both variants if they approved one because there is only a background change, but that's just my opinion.

post #7471122 only has 6 approver checks and should get a second chance. I've appealed it.
The rest looks low quality in general. Have a browse through approver:any and you should get a general sense of what high quality looks like and what approvers tend to like.
What's wrong with this post?

I appreciate the feedback, thanks.

This makes sense, I imagine it might've run a double approval if the Twitter version was uploaded first instead. In recent times I've avoided uploading an inferior Twitter post if I've already gotten a superior Pixiv version (or vice versa, or if I run into a pixel-perfect duplicate) so that there's only the superior version existing on the site.

Appreciate it. I find that this fits the quality standard.

This is primarily what confuses me. I've seen lower quality arts approved to the site in comparison to the "rest" of the posts that I requested feedback on so I used that as a standard. Though I guess that's not exactly a best tell about what arts are quality. Besides using what other approvers have accepted as a baseline, I do personally agree that these works are lower in quality compared to some of the higher rated and more quickly approved works, and will refrain from uploading anything of similar quality in the future.

I would like to request feedback or an appeal for the following post. I believe it fits the quality standard and is well-tagged, however it hasn't been reviewed by many approvers and has been marked as deleted. Been struggling with approvals lately even on what I believe fits good standard.
post #7472223
EDIT: Nevermind. An admin went through and approved a large number of my posts and reverted the deletion state on a few. And it's always the same admin every time who mass-approves my pending queue. I'm going to give you a great big hug.
May I ask for a second chance, or at least a reason why my post was deleted?
From merely taking a glance at the other work of that artist uploaded, it should be in-line in terms of quality.
Edit: Bless you <3

Would like to request feedback or an appeal for the following post. I believe it fits quality standards and is appropriately tagged. In regards to quality standards, there has already been similar work from this artist approved (post #6986883), so I felt it would be fitting to upload since it's in line with the style.
post #7475634
In addition to the above, 3 more of my posts got deleted, so would like to request feedback or an appeal on all of them. I believe that they're more than appropriate to have been approved - quality, tagging and in comparison to other artworks of the same copyright, artist, etc.

post #6986883 is not approved, it was uploaded by a user who can bypass the moderation queue. I personally think both posts look low quality, but that's only my opinion.

I don't like the anatomy of these posts, they look off to me.

Upvotes aren't a good indicator of art quality and are not considered when approving posts.
You can try appealing the post to give it another shot in the mod queue. However, it will use up three upload slots until the post is approved or three days have passed.
More posts seeking feedback or appeal, more confusion on why I'm having a high bin ratio. This looks like the very quality that's typically expected of and accepted to the site, so previous feedback I'm being given to make better uploads make a little less sense when posts like these get rejected.

In what way? We have bad anatomy, respectfully, I don't agree with that being a disqualifying factor, but even then, this feedback is not clear because this looks like regular anatomy. miya-chan_(lightning0730) has 18 approved artworks attributed to their name (uploaded by an approver or not) that all share this same art style and anatomy. I think it deserves a second chance because I can't otherwise think of a reason why it got rejected.

All the more reason that it *should* get accepted though no, or is that a privilege for elevated users? Just genuinely curious, no ill intent meant, if someone who can bypass the modqueue can upload lower quality works but the rest of us are filtered by it. Sounds like a goal to reach if so.

I don't know what you mean by not agreeing with that being a disqualifying factor. Nobody is obligated to approve your uploads, this thread is just for getting feedback. Posts get rejected because approvers don't find them particularly well-drawn or interesting. There is not a specific criteria a post must meet to gain approval, it's a subjective process. As others have said, if you want to get a better idea of what posts typically get approved, you can search for it.

Ergo my confusion. I've been told to search before about what kinds of posts get approved, and did, and used that as a basis of reference, and still get rejected. Compare post #7447257, post #7447311, post #7436930 to any of my deleted posts feedback requests - do these look higher quality than those? It's confusing feedback to have from an approver or not.
I mean what I said about my disagreement, it's just personal. I know approvers are not obligated to approve posts and the queue is very subjective so I'm really just rolling a six-sided dice on if it's fancy to them or not. Though I'm posting here to check what's wrong with my posts and for feedback that I have received, in the past it's been good but my recent feedback is just outright confusing.
Feel like getting Contributor is probably a reasonable goal so I don't have to deal with the subjectivity? Question mark. Sorry, still new to all this.

Bleh, reading issue. I'm sorry, I'm still new to all of this. Found out how to appeal posts and will try using that first before reaching for feedback on what I can do to get better uploads. Or will try to branch my upload types and gun for Contributor so no modqueue. Thanks for the help though now and in the past. Appreciate it. Don't want my posts to come off as hostile, just still a bit confused on everything.

Yes, they do. post #7476261 has a lopsided face, completely equal line thickness, and uneven lineart. post #7476313 has similar especially with the mouth and eyes being totally out of place, the perspective being done badly, and the shading especially on the arms and stomach looking really unnatural.
My point here is not that these artists are bad or you shouldn't upload them - just that you shouldn't necessarily expect them to be approved. Deleted posts can still be seen by everyone, they're just filtered out of searches by default. You can also go into your account settings and enable "Show deleted posts" if you want to ignore the system entirely.
