The soft-rejection system was built for otherwise great files with minor issues preventing them from being accepted. For example, a file that would normally have been accepted, but the preview.swf was named incorrectly may be soft-rejected. In cases like this, the author would just need to fix the minor issue rather than re-uploading everything from scratch.

If your item has been soft-rejected, you’ll receive an email letting you know. Follow these steps to get your soft-rejected file re-reviewed.

1. Follow the link found in the email.
2. Click the edit button. The edit page is split up into two parts, “Update Description” and “Update Item and Tags.”
   
3. Make the changes outlined in the email.
   1. If you change anything under “Update Description” like the description, published size, or resolution, be sure to click  and return to the edit tab to complete the final steps.
      Note: Just clicking will not put your item in the soft-rejection queue!
   2. Under “Update Item and Tags,” re-upload anything you’ve changed. Be sure to re-upload the preview, whether it changed or not.
4. In the notes to the reviewer, outline the changes you’ve made.
5. Click .

Once you’ve completed these steps, your file will enter the soft-rejection queue, which moves along more quickly than the normal queue.
