<br>
Thank you very much for the feedback. We chatted about this on slack<br>
and I just want to make clear and review to make sure I did not<br>
misunderstand, this is about finding validated tasks to review the<br>
validation work. We have had issues with new mappers validating task<br>
squares so Scott, you are trying to review "new validators" not "new<br>
mappers".<br>
<br>
We did not come up with a good way to do that, but identified some<br>
possible improvements we can make to support this critical use. We<br>
focused on some improvements to the stats page, like sortable columns<br>
and maybe adding a column or two to the mapper list to indicate their<br>
experience level.<br>
<br>
Thank you again for your time Scott.<br>
<br>
Respectfully,<br>
blake<br>
