Since I don't have edit privileges (yet), when I select the option to edit a post in the review queue, my edit gets submitted as a suggested edit, and the review completion actions modal updates to display "Pending edit".
This option is not selectable when I'm in the review queues on my laptop — which is the appropriate behavior, in my opinion.
However, when I'm using the review queues on my mobile (in the responsive design), I am able to tap on "Pending edit" and a tick mark appears to show that the option is selected. However, nothing happens when I then try to click on "Submit" to complete the review.
This is confusing. It would be better if one of the following changes is made:
- the "Pending edit" option is completely hidden, or
- the "Pending edit" option is visible, but not selectable, or
- an appropriate error message shows up when selecting "Pending edit" and trying to click on "Submit".
To clarify, this happens only when I click on the "edit" action link beneath the post. When I instead use the "Edit" option in the review actions modal on the right sidebar, the review is completed immediately upon submitting the suggested edit.
I did not realize this earlier, because I had never used the second option before. Perhaps this is no more a bug, I'm not sure… I also found the following request on Meta SE to remove the "edit" action link beneath the post: User Tomerikoo's answer to "Review queue workflows - Final release", currently marked status-review. If that is implemented, it would take care of the issue mentioned in this post as well.
