| Jun 1, 2017 at 2:45 | comment | added | Martin - マーチン Mod | @chail10 A suggested edit (from users <2000 rep.) can of course be rejected in the edit queue. It needs two users who have the privilege (or one moderator) to either approve or reject. If the edit is substantial, the OP should get a notification, too, and can either approve or reject. Edits of users with >2000 rep. will instantly be applied and the only way to revert this is another edit or rollback. You can @-notify any editor to tell h{er..im} your concerns. If you are really unhappy with an edit and need an explanation you can bring it here to meta.chemistry. | |

| May 31, 2017 at 19:48 | comment | added | chail10 | Okay. But when I edit someone's post, there is something called 'peer review' flashes and my edit is effectively processed after quite a time. Is in that mean time that edit reviewed by the moderator? | |
| May 31, 2017 at 19:34 | comment | added | NotEvans. | My answer was poorly worded, by reject, I meant, should you choose to roll-back edits. There is no notification when someone edits your post, and this notification cannot be turned on. If you want this feature, you can request it at meta.stackexchange.com, as any change would effect the whole of the stack exchange network (the community moderators here do not have that power). | |

| May 31, 2017 at 19:33 | comment | added | chail10 | Yes, I know that 'anyone in the community is free to improve upon posts'. But from the last paragraph of your answer it is evident that there is some privilege called 'Reject' the suggested edit. I am just asking that, I don't receive any such prompt whether to approve or reject and the edited posts gets approval automatically. | |
