Congratulations to those involved in moderating the uploaded sound files! Turnaround has been very timely the past few weeks (from minutes to <24 hours).

Well done!

Thanks for your acknowledgement. I've passed the message on privately

I'm also waiting for mods to approve my songs. My comment too. Don't know how long to wait.

Any user waiting for moderation might want to go to https://freesound.org/home/sounds/manage/pending_moderation/

It should look similar to this:

It is possible a moderator asked questions to consider before approving but the email notifications didn't reach the user. These questions can be found by following the "See moderation ticket" links.

One can also search their email spam box and inbox for the subject line "[freesound] A Freesound moderator handled your upload" which contains a link to the ticket. There might be many similar emails with different links.

Thank you for this.

It took over 24 hours for me but that might be because my sound is of an erotic nature.

I have three sounds in moderation for 7 days (uploaded May 14, 2025). The moderation tickets are all unassigned, and there are no messages for me to respond to. How much longer should I expect to wait?
