Step 0: Task Statuses/reworks
Before you look at the image, check whether your task is blank or already has work on it. If a word is new to you, look it up in Key Terms. Newly claimed tasks have 4 hours from claim for Annotators, Reviewers/QC, and Auditors. Returned tasks have 12 hours from return before being reassigned. Finish and submit within the applicable window; once it expires, the task can be pulled from your queue.
Blank task
Nothing on it. Go to Step 1.
Someone else's unfinished draft
Another fellow skipped this task or held it too long, so it came back to the queue. It may still have their leftover annotation.
- Option 1: Clear it with the small x in the top right of the annotation in SuperAnnotate (the annotation tool), then start fresh.
- Option 2: Build on what's already there.
Either way, you own whatever you submit, so it must meet your own standards.
A task sent back for fixes
In SuperAnnotate, a task sent back for fixes is tagged
Returned_to_Annotator_Fail.If your own task is sent back to you with reviewer feedback, prioritize fixing it.
If you receive someone else's returned task:
- Fix the prompt using the reviewer's feedback.
- Rebuild from scratch only if the model still can't be stumped after the requested changes.
Payment: Pay is tied to the last attempter who fixed the task and moved it forward. Overall payment still depends on the task passing the client's post-checks.
You can't remove Returned_to_Annotator_Fail tasks yourself
If you absolutely can't handle one, report it in the daily task removal thread in the tasking channel on Slack.
