Description

I'd like to think I understand how ORES works...but I saw "ORES threshold for damaging model" and was clueless for a few seconds. It would be a good idea to have some help text or a link there with more detail.

That would be great. What do you suggest to have? maybe @Halfak or @awight can help :)

Current:

ORES threshold for damaging model
- Hard (more strict)
- Soft (less strict)

Proposed:

ORES review flag threshold -- This threshold determines how sensitive ORES is when flagging edits needing review
- High (flags fewer edits)
- Low (flags more edits)

After talking with @Ladsgroup, it seems that the concept of a "threshold" was shot down in past discussions. How about we conceptualize it as "sensitivity"?

ORES sensitivity -- This threshold determines how sensitive ORES is when flagging edits needing review
- High (flags more edits)
- Low (flags fewer edits)
