Suggestion:  
Change the beginning of the sentence that is displayed at the bottom of `approve_post_count` related posts in the queue:

![Review-Queue-Approval-Number-Suggestion](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/b/8/0/b8095144eac5f4b4e78d8ee8c777aacebefe29f0.png)  
to:  
“The first `x` posts from…”  
and if `approve_post_count` is set to 1  
“The first post from…”

Maybe, also remove ‘See approve post count.’ from the end, and link the ‘first x posts’/‘first post’ to /admin/site\_settings/category/all\_results?filter=approve\_post\_count instead.

Changing:

The first few posts from every user must be approved by staff. See [approve post count](https://meta.discourse.org/admin/site_settings/category/all_results?filter=approve_post_count).

to:

The [first x posts](https://meta.discourse.org/admin/site_settings/category/all_results?filter=approve_post_count) from every user must be approved by staff.

This would prevent the text from wrapping onto two lines.

That may be true for English, but probably not for other languages.

In general, I like that the structure is the same for all the different reasons why a post requires approval. They all end with “See {link to setting}” which is a clear reference.  
I think for moderators, a “see this setting” highlights better where the link is going to take them and why it in some cases doesn’t work than linking some words. And for category moderators who see the text but without a link, it’s visible that there is probably a link for staff.

Thanks @Moin, that makes sense.

I haven’t had any call to use the category moderators setup yet. If the “See {link to setting}” is not a link for category moderators (and moderators it seems) then the initial suggestion in:

> [@Display the value of approve\_post\_count below the relevant posts on the review queue](https://meta.discourse.org/t/display-the-value-of-approve-post-count-below-the-relevant-posts-on-the-review-queue/331061):

> Suggestion: Change the beginning of the sentence that is displayed at the bottom of approve\_post\_count related posts in the queue: [Review-Queue-Approval-Number-Suggestion] to: “The first x posts from…” and if approve\_post\_count is set to 1 “The first post from…”

would be useful for moderators and category moderators.
