Why can't I reject the addition of a Band Member?

Why is it that when checking edits in the Band members area it only gives the options Submit or Delete instead of 1, 2, 3 or Reject? Since there is no Reject option I can't reject a submission when somebody wants to add a musician to MS that is already on MS. Would that be considered a bug that needs to be reported so the site mods can fix it or did y'all leave it that way for a reason?

Ok so the 1,2,3 and Reject options were added to Band member edits but it still doesn't show the submitters Source and Comments about the edit they are submitting.

Should be fixed now.

Ok so I'm trying to accept a Band member edit submitted by a fellow user and they included a Source for the edit but it keeps giving me the message "Error! Source of information is required." It's the one for Andy James, in case you need to know which one is doing it. Since you're Staff though it may work differently when you try to do it versus me just having earned Permission to Check edits, idk what the limitations are on how Staff perms work versus user earned perms in the background coding.

I accepted it without any issues. :/

Do you have the 1/2/3/Reject options? And did you select one of the numbers in order to accept the edit?

1/2/3

What the purpose of it?

Yes I had all 4 of those options and I was pressing 3, but every time it would give me that error message. It used to not give me those options though until Ivan fixed it recently, after Ivan fixed it I haven't had any trouble accepting Band member edits until that one. I kinda figured it might work if a Staff member did it so I guess if it happens again I'll just report it again, just in case that one wasn't a fluke.

So that the edit checker can rate the quality of the edit. And the submitter gets that corresponding number of points toward their editing perms. So if you submit all good quality edits then you will earn the editing and checking permissions quicker, if you submit all crap/poor quality edits then it will take you longer to earn permissions.

Ok so the issue is still happening. There are 5 Band member edits right now and it's not letting me accept them for that same "error code: source required" message and the submitter put a source link for it...

PM Ivan.

It might have something to do with the fact I can't see your permissions on your profile. I see the 3000+ comm. points and the points chart, but not your perms box.

Ok will do. FYI I have all but Videos and Trivia perms, those are a little bit more difficult to find all the right sources and info for...lol
