Area Managers - Oldest Update Request?

Postby obsolete29 » Thu Jun 09, 2011 7:02 pm

I recently asked to be AM for the whole of TN and I've been working the update request queue for a couple weeks now (down to 52 pages from 96!) and I found the oldest update request that I've ever seen. 700 days! Have you seen older?

I've responded to a couple a little over 600 days old. But 700? Wow. I'm sure Mr TubaGuy is happy people can finally locate that house.

I've seen some in the mid-600's but so far you hold the record! It's good to see more editors here in the center of the country.

Did you have to send in permalinks for the whole state to get AM status?

I sent the SuperPermalinks of the four corners. I had to add one more block to cover a largeish city on the border after the fact.

I'm starting to get into requests that are less than 3 months old so I feel like I'm making some progress.

From the blog, it looks like May 25, 2009: Great buzz around waze’s announcement. That was 749 days ago.

So what do you say when you respond to someone who left the UR that long ago?
