Moderation: Changes Required and Rejection Reasons

A handy little page under construction by moderators. This will help in understanding what moderators are looking for, what changes required (CR) messages you might get, and what the reasoning behind rejections are.

Do NOT edit if you are not a staff member. Thank you :D

Introduction

Nearly everyone has had an upload marked with "changes required" or has been rejected at one point or another. Most of the time, these reasons are due to people not being careful with information in their posts. However, uploaders are often surprised when they get, what appears to be, an automated message tagged onto their submitted upload. This page is made specifically to tell you all of the things we look for while moderating. Think of it like the creator guidelines, but from the moderators viewpoint. Now that you can see all of these reasons for rejecting, we hope that there will be a lot less confusion on your end when we say "You need more info in your post" or "This needs a bit more work."
