We'd rather authors focus on checking out the author guide, sending stories through in the right format with clear information regarding whether their submission is a story or a serial or part of an ordered series etc, and proofreading/correcting errors prior to sending new material through. Such measures would greatly improve the lot of the validaters and save them considerable time.
While we are under no obligation to provide any content icons etc, we do so as it is helpful. We now have two new validaters prepared to give up several hours of their time each week, so please be patient as we clear the backlog. I'm sure we'll get there eventually.
