I think this is an important need, too - (somewhat) timely review of all
the records. But it is hard to look past the screen to the review-side of
things to sense the workload. Nonetheless, the increasing use of eBird as
pictured in the graphs I shared on CoBirds a little while back suggest a
need for more reviewers, as in frequently birded counties like Adams it is
a busy task. Still, those counties probably also have more people who could
serve well as eBird reviewers. The number of records in a review queue can
get daunting, and old records slip down out of view several screens back.
