<p>I find it a bit puzzling, regarding site moderation, that questions are put on hold quickly (that's good) but in my experience it takes forever for them to be re-opened. In a <a href="https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/295847/how-to-derive-prediction-intervals-from-the-posterior-predictive-distribution-of?noredirect=1#comment563219_295847">recent example</a> from this morning (there have been others before) my question was put on hold within minutes, but although I timely revised it nobody (i.e., not enough people) seemed to bother to re-open it till now, although the original critic has already agreed to the revisions. </p>

<p>So I wonder:</p>

<ul>
<li>Does it take too long on CV for questions to be reopened?</li>
<li>Are enough questions reopened?</li>
<li>Should there be a better system for reopening questions? (Once a question is on hold fewer people tend to look at it, so questions might not get enough attention anymore although they have been revised.)</li>
</ul>
