Deletion of uploaded files is treated same as file rejection and effects on your stats and sales.

If that is the case with deleting stuck files, then the effect would be negated when re-uploading them back into the queue?

Of course NOT.
if you upload 1000 images your upload counter will state that you have 1000 uploads.
And if you delete 100 and  then upload those 100 again, your counter will state that you have 1100 uploads and 100 deleted / rejected images.
It is a basic math.

I don't necessarily want to say that your statement is not true. But I find it somehow illogical.
Do you have a link where I can read your information?
I'm not even sure whether rejected images affect the ranking. My personal experience in this regard is different.

I'm having difficulty finding my acceptance ratio. Is that listed for my account? If the idea that uploads vs accepted, totally ignored uploads that were deleted, maybe?

As far as what Adobe has told us in the two webinars and other places, images are ranked by their activity during the images first 30 days. No where does anything tell us that accounts or artists are ranked.

Position is flexible and always changing, relative to everyone else's position. It's not rank or fixed. It's a floating position. If I get a sudden burst of DLs, I'll move up. If I have a dead period, I'll go down, as long as others had more DLs during the same week. There's nothing to say that uploads and accepted or total numbers have anything to do with position.

Pete, you don't have to explain that to me. I see it the same way you do.
However, it's all a black box.
If someone has additional information, that's ok. But if someone make assertions here, then he should be able to back them up somehow.

That information was already explained here on forum.
In one of those previous topics about adobe upload and review time and how uploaded files are not affected by time of upload but by time of approval.
I'm sorry but I don't have time to surf trough thousand posts just to insure you two.
With all due respect, either you think that I'm wrong or not it doesn't change what I have read here some time ago.

In this forum on March 4, 2024, in response to the question "Does your % acceptance on Adobestock affect how much your images are seen?", Mat Hayward from Adobe Stock responded "No."

It seems that some people are getting images reviewed and others seem to get buried never to be seen again, I am wondering if it is worth deleting images and resubmitting them to get them back up the top of the Q?

What about deleting already approved images?
It has worked for me on a handful of occasions in the past to resubmit the stuck files and they have been reviewed more quickly. But there is no need to delete the older ones first, you can delete them if the newer ones get reviewed. Otherwise I would leave the older ones there in case they get reviewed first, and then I would delete the newer ones.

Deletion of uploaded files is treated same as file rejection and effects on your stats and sales.

So anyway, talking about review times, in Adobe Stock VP Matt Smith's blog post today, apart from all the exciting news about the Firefly bonus, it is stated that Adobe Stock has tripled their review team.

Finally. 
It took more than 8 weeks to review uploaded images, but it seems that Adobe started to moderate something that is not AI.
