User blog comment:Incorrect3/Needs Work Amendments/@comment-25021327-20170312235803

I think something like this seems pretty reasonable. Back when there were more active users, it was nice to give some time for the author as well as other users to edit stories. How it's been lately, there seem to be less people around editing others' stories.There are a lot of stories that I personally feel are beyond help, and for which I think adding 48 Hours is certainly appropriate.

I agree that for the most part, stories should be proofread and formatted well before they are posted. Some folks need help with that stuff, and I don't really mind giving it to those who want to improve. I Think that regardless of whether we add Needs Work or 48 Hours, we ought to give relatively detailed descriptions of what's wrong with the story.

Mostly, I think it should be at an admin's discretion. If an admin thinks a story is worth a 7-9 day wait, that's fine, If another admin finds that story first and wants to mark it 48 hours, that should be fine too. But once it's marked with one or the other by an admin, that should probably stick.
