State Diagram of a Sift
In case you missed it like me - Lucky published a diagram in the FAQ showing how a post can move through VideoSift. As usual, a picture illustrates things much better than mere words.

I like to imagine it's a colored circle sex orgy with the green guy perfectly positioned to receive from everyone.
As one who generates process flow diagrams for a living, I feel it necessary to point out that there's no path form pqueue to deadpool (or several of the other pathing options to deadpool...)
I like it, but I think it's missing a few of the more obscure workings.
But really only sifted videos can be flagged dead, right?
gwiz665 is right thougt: the flow chart could be expanded to explain the promote, discuss, discard and kill invocations as well...

I'm viewing in night mode, and can't make out the text between the bubbles.

That's because such paths do not exist.

That is intentional. As I started plotting out all the extraneous states of a video, it got extremely messy and convoluted, so I decided to stick with the basics, especially because that's what's most needed by new (confused) members.
@lucky760 I'd love to see the big convoluted one too.
^ Me too...
As I recall, that one just included the discarded and killed states, which would essentially just have an arrow to and/or from every other state in the chart because those states can reached at (most) any time.

Me too, and not just because I wanna make a t-shirt of it on TeeVirus with the text "This is what I do for fun..." above it.
WHY IS EVERYONE POSTING IN ITALICS?!
Nice. Now, add it to FAQ!
Time-out for queued videos is 2 days, not 3.

It's been in the FAQ for months.

That's what the diagram says.Oh, queued videos. Is it really 2 days now? I guess I'll have to re-diagram.>> ^lucky760:

I've redrawn the diagram to work on dark backgrounds and to correct the time out from queued to pqueued (from 3 days to 2 days).
That's a wonderful info-graphic, lucky.
