    Fair point, maybe "duplicates" shouldn't score so high in general then bacause the topic itself is actively covered by another question already so the risk of them remaining buried is lower (compared to questions closed for other reasons) – nohillside Sep 9 '13 at 15:33

    @Shog9 Over on SA, we only have about 13 10k users, and not all of those are active. Suggest smaller sites get tuned to no more than say 5 auto-reevalutes per day to reduce the burden. Also, they don't seem to be worth reopening almost ever, judging by the 20 from yesterday over on SA. Maybe the criteria can be tuned. – SAJ14SAJ Sep 10 '13 at 14:03

    Does flag also include a reopen vote? – Shafik Yaghmour Feb 21 '14 at 15:13

    Yes, @ShafikYaghmour - but a reopen vote will itself add the post to the queue. – Shog9 Feb 21 '14 at 16:32

    Is the second of these (third-party edit so long as the editor didn't vote to close) still correct? As a moderator I will sometimes close a question immediately if I don't have time to fix it right then, and then come back some hours later to edit the question. I'd been assuming all along that my edits would send the question to the reopen queue. If not, how should moderators handle that case? – Monica Cellio Apr 25 '16 at 12:56

    Moderators should directly reopen questions they fix, @Monica. We don't vote to give people powerful tools so they can mess around creating work for other people. – Shog9 Apr 25 '16 at 17:16

    That's not quite true either, @E.P. - an accurate description would be, "a new reopen vote will create a review task if there are no active reopen votes or review tasks for the post". – Shog9 Jul 12 '16 at 23:20
