A few days ago I hit 200 reviews!
(A measly achievement in most of your terms, but I've only been here a few months remember  )
To celebrate, I've decided what I'd actually like to do is go through all my reviews and delete any I don't feel are good enough. We all take a little while to properly get into fwiffering and figure out what makes a good review, what we like etc., so I have some (from my early days especially) which I wouldn't submit now. There are also those that I liked at the time I submitted them, but not anymore. Basically, I want to make the average standard of my reviews higher.
I already deleted a couple, but then thought, in order to help me decide what should stay and what should go, I'd ask you guys to take a couple of minutes (there are only just over two pages after all!  ) to look through them and vote for any you like. Then I'll see which ones we agree aren't good enough!
So, here are my reviews in chronological order.
Thanks! 
p.s. feel free to suggest ways some of the less-good ones could be improved

It was rejected with a query as to what Hertz means! Do we have to give definitions of every perfectly common term with reviews now?! I don't really think having to resubmit this was a fair use of 5% of my quota. |

I'd simply prefer to have less, but on average better, reviews.
What I like to check as a quality gauge is people with a higher average but more reviews and those with a higher votes total but fewer reviews. This is currently no one and RockGolf (of course) respectively, so I feel satisfied with that. |

Don't they both lose?
The winners shall be losers and the losers shall be winners. Or maybe it was the first shall be last and the last shall be first. I bet no one cares. |

You have always shown great vote fu skills as well, O ye of the West. I abase myself before Sensei and now you, and crave satori: what is the sound of one more vote flapping?
The style is Gazillion vote-jitsu, an Eastern art once all but lost until a few Western disciples brought its secrets to the beaches of North and South America, where it now flourishes. I respect and revere the ways of vote-fu, nonetheless; I bow to the Sensei ("Daisensei!") and to yourself ("Wakasensei!") |

Wow, that's an honorable question you've asked, what should go and what should stay, but... as you've already so astutely observed, there's a learning curve involved in your first couple hundred reviews, so learn to love 'em and progress from there.
Please, visit all my reviews, pick those you think aren't worthy, and I'll defend each one, as I've spent countless hours thinking up the crapft(The P is silent) that's pushed me up the ladder, and I'll also defend every one of yours!!!!
I'll visit you, as I always do, but never will I suggest that one of your 200 qualifies for deletion...
Never!
Actually, I think I found one, but like I said... I'd never presume to give advice in that direction: Rock on, my fellow reviewer, you'll reach the top in no time, you've got the stuff!
Yeah, that's a good way of looking at it, I think I will at least go a lot easier on them than I was planning! I'm just gonna get rid of the very few I really don't like, and maybe give some of the others I was considering deleting the benefit of the doubt.
Thanks for the kind words and the votes!

A 1/4 of my total votes there.

If I posed the same question, I'm sure the line would wind around the corner to help me dismiss thousands of reviews I'm not only proud of, but those I never thought the Merps would deem satisfactory... I dig your cry for help, but I never question a review that passes muster.

Youngling, your vote fu skills are indeed impressive, but Sensei dwells upon the mount. Look backward in many foura for proof. You have successfully taken your first step in the tao. May your votes be pure.

You are so right! Sensei, a new star is born!

So true Grasshopper. My vote pimp meter redlined early with this one.

Ok I admit it, you got me, I'm not actually planning to delete ANY of my reviews, this whole request is a hoax! mwuhahaa!
