| Jul 2, 2015 at 6:52 | comment | added | Sumurai8 | The way I read the question is "to add comments to reviews for reviewers and previous reviewers". That is, to add a new system of comments. That with the notion that OP didn't want to add comments to an other post of the reviewer (because of noise), or wants to raise a flag, makes me believe they want a seperate system, not one that inserts it into the comment thread on the question/answer itself. Besides this, there are no comments for tag wikis. | |
| Jul 2, 2015 at 1:04 | comment | added | ThisSuitIsBlackNot | Who said anything about private comment threads? The OP proposed making comments visible to reviewers, but never said anything about making them visible only to reviewers. I took it as a given that the comments would be public, just like everything else associated with reviews. That was the entire point of my previous comment about chat. I don't see why quantity matters either; those thousands of reviews per day are already being stored indefinitely for anyone to see. | |

| Jul 1, 2015 at 22:09 | comment | added | Sumurai8 | You really have to go out of your way to make a chat room with someone. This system would be an integral part of the review system, with thousands of private comment threads per day. I doubt nearly that amount of private chat rooms are made. Besides this, everyone can drop in into a chatroom, regardless of who it was created for. There is also a public list of chatrooms under chat.stackoverflow | |
| Jul 1, 2015 at 21:08 | comment | added | ThisSuitIsBlackNot | We already have chat, which is "hidden" in the sense that you can invite a user to chat with a private ping, without leaving a comment on one of their posts. Chat would also be an ideal "safe" environment to bully people over something, except that chats are public and stored indefinitely and genuine abuse can be flagged. I don't really see the difference between the two. | |
| Jul 1, 2015 at 18:14 | comment | added | Sumurai8 | Yes, but unlike this hidden review comment system, literally everyone can read it, and tell you off if you are pushing something that is not commonly accepted. The suggested system is visible to 6-ish people and a random person that might somehow be able to view reviews. Unlike regular comments it is the ideal and "safe" environment to bully people over something, because almost no-one can tell the person that left the comment otherwise. | |

Who am I to decide that somebody has written a bad answer? And yet I can downvote answers that I think are crappy and leave comments saying as much. Who am I to decide that somebody has made a bad edit? And yet I can rollback edits and @ ping editors to tell them I think they screwed up. Moderators are busy, which is why regular users are given certain privileges to help moderate the site.

| Jul 1, 2015 at 17:49 | comment | added | Sumurai8 | Oh, as for your other point. Who are you to decide that someone else made a bad review? Was it actually bad, or did you just happen to differ in opinion? Why didn't you notify a moderator? If it wasn't that serious, is it serious enough to bitch around the other user about it? Or worse, have some kind of utterless pointless argument about it? Is this argument worth it? | |
| Jul 1, 2015 at 17:09 | comment | added | Sumurai8 | Then that might be a possible improvement. I guess I often click open the question to see what has happened on it. | |
| Jul 1, 2015 at 17:01 | comment | added | ThisSuitIsBlackNot | 1) You can't notify a reviewer that they've made a bad review before they've actually done the review. 2) Comments on a post aren't shown in suggested edit reviews. | |

If you @notify an editor why you think the edit should be rejected, and a reviewer does not read that, what makes you think that that same reviewer will read your @mention in some hidden review-comment system? I've clarified that now.

The point of the suggestion is to notify reviewers, not editors. You can't @ notify reviewers in comments.
