All three of these posts have a very small amount of tags in them, as if you did the bare minimum. Your uploaded art has a much higher chance to get approved if you tag them properly, regardless of the quality of the art itself. My advice is to just tag what you see, and if you still need any help (after you have already tried), ask for help in topic #12251.

ok

Thank you for your reply.

I have added more and more accurate tags. Can we start the review again now? Or do you and other administrators need to review it manually?

The replier was not an approver, moderator, or administrator, just a helpful user, same as most people in this thread. The thread's main purpose is to ask for advise on how to do better in future uploads, not as a request platform for reconsiderations, though some approvers who browse this thread can choose to approve what they see. Formally requesting a re-review can only be done through appealing. Unfortunately, a user can only appeal a post once.

I advise using howto:tag checklist to tag your posts in the future. They're still not tagged well enough. I'm personally interested in post #9199063. I'll tag it as an example for you and appeal it. However, if it still ends up not approved, it's probably because her head-to-body ratio is stretching it. See: common head-to-body ratios

@astrates You seem to have missed an earlier reply in the thread debunking the myth that good tagging improves a post's chance of getting approved. While some Approvers may want a post fully tagged before they approve it, most don't care from what I understand. The tags don't have any effect on the art quality. Well-tagged bad art is still bad art, and poorly-tagged good art is still good art. The only things besides that that would have a significant effect is the artist tag and the source so that they know who made it and where the uploader got it.

However, it is important to remember that thorough tagging is still a requirement for all users regardless of whether the post gets approved. Uploading high-quality art and proper tagging are two separate, yet necessary things users must do. In the end, it doesn't matter whether or not tagging well improves your chances since you should be doing it anyway.

Also, regarding this users's statement:

For future reference, blue, gold, and silver names are not Approvers. Green names are Moderators and red names are Admins, and they both have the same powers as Approvers.

Here's where it gets tricky. All Approvers have purple names, but not all purple names are Approvers. Some are Builders or Contributors (I'm the latter). You can see what level a user is by clicking on their username.

This is important to remember since users below Approver level are discouraged from posting art advice here since they're not the ones deciding what gets approved.
