[theme-reviewers] Theme Review Guidelines

[Rohit Tripathi]

Yes, that is True. Many Reviews, are based on mostly visual checks. Code is not checked at all.
Looking forward to the February changes. Really hope that it resolves the problem, i talked about.

The latter point will be addressed in the February program changes.
But as a general note: any Theme that has a generated ticket has already passed the critical/required tests in Theme Check (otherwise, the Theme would fail the upload checks). From that point, Theme Check is only a tool for the reviewer, to help point out areas for further scrutiny. Dumping Theme Check output in review ticket comments is almost always redundant, confusing, and unnecessary.

Based on most of the "approved" tickets I've been auditing, I suspect that several reviewers are reviewing Themes without ever looking at any of the Themes' code.

Yup. I always try to keep up with the Review Guidelines. Also, the Theme Emphasis Points are a Great Help. I would recommened that to everyone, as they will resolve most issues for tickets which are re-opened.

But, I see many new reviewers are picking up themes in bulk and just running Theme Checks, checking the license and approving theme. This is a bad practice, and seems to look like an attempt to misuse the Review Incentive Feature.

Thanks Emil. 

If anybody needs a second eye I try to make myself available when I can. I'm sure most others feel the same way.
