The requirements for earning the Edit Posts ability which would allow reviewing suggested edits can be found in each community's help section. For example, the [Physics Edit Posts Ability page](https://physics.codidact.com/abilities/edit_posts):

> ## How do I earn this ability?
>
> To earn this ability, you need to have at least a 95% approval rate for your suggested edits, with a hard minimum of 30 approved suggested edits (these numbers may vary from site to site).

Note that abilities are not related to how much general activity or reputation a user has, but their activity in that specific area. To see how many suggested edits you have had approved or rejected you can refer to the [Activity tab of your user profile filtered to show only Edits](https://physics.codidact.com/users/36396/activity?filter=edits).
- The Type column shows whether each one was an "Edit" or "Suggested Edit".
- The Status column shows whether a suggested edit was "helpful" (counts towards earning the ability) or "declined" (counts against earning the ability).

Only suggested edits (those on other people's posts) count towards your 30 approved suggested edits, and your 95% approval rate.
