Bots
editSome bots have been given reviewer status. This is solely for their edits to be auto-sighted. No bot should perform the initial sighting of an article.
Requests for review status
editAll requests to be given reviewer status should be made at WN:FR/RFP.
All editors who may review an article are strongly urged to use the "Easy Peer Review" Gadget to do so. This appears on the drop-down menu for an article flagged for review and will perform a variety of technical tasks that are otherwise quite time-consuming.
Historical note
editPreviously, a different right was referred to as reviewer. This right (which is not used) is now called Super-reviewer. Most external documentation will call what we call the Reviewer group 'editors'.
