The guidance for the "requires editing" button in the Triage queue currently states:

for questions where edits by the author or others would result in a question that is clear and answerable

However, if a question requires information from the asker, the question should be closed. "Requires editing" puts the question in the H&I queue, where editors are powerless to read the asker's mind.

My feature request is that you should strike "by the author" from this text. (There have been other proposals on Meta Stack Overflow about rewording these messages that may have better all-around text.)

In general, it would be nice to see triage and H&I evaluated before moving on to new things. I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned at all in this meta question.
