Have one pending from July 9th. Won't be contributing anymore BY. I'll keep them local and let someone else contribute them.

I have one from July 19th, still pending.

It's pretty annoying if you're also contributing something like cover scans, which normally would be approved quite quickly.

A month or so for approval is way too long. It really should be no more than twice the time for a normal contribution.
One week should really be all it takes for a new BY contribution to be approved.

I totally agree with everyone's frustration, like I can submit a new movie and it takes less then 24 hours to get added, then I add a contribution and it takes about a week, then adding a BY it takes forever, like CubbyUps says it should be no more than twice the time for a normal contribution.

An assumption based on what exactly?

New profiles are still being processed, so somebody is around. I had 8 new profiles approved earlier today.

Yes, "regular" contributions. But not contributions with new birth years in them - that particular bit of "second level reviewing" often only occurs once a month or so.

Lesson learned: get everything else out of the way first, and only then submit the birth year. It's unfortunate that it has to be that way, but so be it.

Other contributions correcting other errors which then get overwritten.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

It has been my experience the time frame is usually two weeks or so and occasionally three.  The few two months it has been 4+ weeks.  So what has been happening lately is not the norm
