The problem is we didn't had a review system for the OoT before(at last by the time I was promoted). That's the reason why there is no reviewing scheme for this. And to get us, the mesh reviewers, reviewing like it should be done, we need to clarify one. The meshes didn't have been reviewed properly and new we get error reports because of this. It was like "aro had a look at this, so it should be ok". Well, the effects are not satisfying. Just by taking a look at something you can't catch out everything. That's why I suggest to make it more official. The reviewer should check out all aspects of the uploaded work.
The mesh itself. Does it have any weird smoothing? Is it detailed enough for our quality level? Can the mesh be poly reduced without loss on quality? Doesn't it have to many polies?
Uvw mapping and vertex paint. Is the uvw mapping good? Aren't there any visible unnatural stretching? Does it use vertex paint? Can we get it look even more better with that technique?
Havok, collision meshes. Is the collision mesh too much or too less detailed? Does it fit the mesh? Does the item act natural ingame?
Textures. Are they good enough? Do they fit what we have now? If a new texture is added, don't we have already something very similar that we could use instead of a new one? Are they tiled properly? Is the size and file format proper? Is the size of the texture respective for the mesh size?
Additional maps and other mesh properties. Does a lamp glow? Isn't the texture too flat? Is the normal map generated properly? Aren't the stones too shiny or the glass too mat?
Texture paths and filenames. Doesn't need additional explaining.
The reviewer should comment each one of these aspects even if it's going to be an okay for each six of these. That will make him aware that he's responsible for the quality of this work and what's best make him think about all of this stuff.
Discuss or die
memories...
I also wanted to add that if someone wants to review a mesh, but isn't sure how to check some of these aspects, I can always clear his doubts.
