I've 301 redirected my old url to my new one and requested changes, but how long does this take? My category is small and has no editor so I'm curious if it will ever go through. Thanks!
Most updates are generally attended to in a speedy fashion, as they are somewhat highlighted and stand out. There are no time frames given, it depends when somebody volunteers to do so. Your category does have an editor, it just dosent show a "named" editor. Many people can edit there, so it will be looked at in due course. Cheers
there need not to be any dedicated category editors. there are meta editors and other senior editors who can do it if the category does not have any volunteer editor
Meta editors and "senior editors" are volunteers too, just like any editor, wherever they are listed.
