Could we please have a clearer visual indication of whether the suggested edit is an edit to a question or an answer? Currently the only way I distinguish between the two is to look for the (very light gray) text asked or answered next to original poster's name.

suggested edit on question

suggested edit on answer

I was just about to suggest the same, when I found this question. For now just the question title is being displayed:

I suggest that the question title is prefixed with "Answer to:" if the edit has been suggested to an answer of the displayed question:

Answer to: Drupal 7 - How to load a template file from a module?

Since I don't think that this will be fixed in the short term, I created a small user script to work around this issue.

The script detects whether a post is a question or an answer, and adds this information as a new heading, similar to the other review queues. It also highlights whether a question is closed, as I tend to overlook this information too.

For example, this review on SO is rendered as: Suggested edit review with added "Answer" heading

I tested with latest Firefox and Chrome, using the Tampermonkey browser extension.

Feel free to propose improvements or report bugs at the linked Stack Apps post.

    @JanWichelmann Nice little script, does exactly what it promises! (Works fine with greasemonkey, too) Maybe you could post it on stackapps.com to increase visibility? Commented Jun 20, 2020 at 15:10
  • @samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Good idea, I did not think of that! Looks like the right place to post this.
