Both Tutorials and Reviews are different node types than the average node, which mean it's a little harder to move them between sections and so forth. Not impossible, of course, but certainly non-trivial.
I am in the middle of redesigning the layout of the Tutorials1 and will be updating the list at that time. Once that's done, I will be submitting a couple of ideas for Reviews to TPTB in an effort to make that interface a little more accessible.
Hopefully, that will help us figure out ways to help folks locate useful information more quickly.
Sorry for the delay...

1 - I had planned to do it a few weeks ago, but I ended up getting distracted by my RL taking an unexpected (and severe) left turn. Probably shouldn't have had an effect, but it did. Sorry.

I have heard that it is currently not possible to move stuff from Meditations to Tutorials. I don't know about reviews, but that is probably the same? Case in point being when I posted this meditation that got considered for moving.
Later, ignatz, who also was the "considerer", posted this follow-up, stating (according to tye) that this was the case, and asked for a repost, which was done.
Speaking of which, I wonder what happened to that... I guess it got rejected. :)
Anyhow, I am fully for this, if there is a good way to implement it. Actually, I would like tutorials/reviews to be able to be frontpaged in their own right, if I get to choose, but the backup plan with meditations is good enough, if the moving mechanism is put into place.
You have moved into a dark place.

I would like to add my support to this suggestion as I spend much of my time at the tutorial node of PM.
A lot of the code that is posted to Monastry Gates and SOPW is over my head, so I tend to search for code that is on par to my current level of understanding.
Some of the tutorial nodes have a very high reputation and are of high quality, many are still gathering ++ votes when more than a year has passed since their first inception.
So dare I suggest that some special award, or category is created for these gems.
Or that they automatically be 'bumped up' to a higher level, when they attain a high reputation.
I would like to thank all who contribute to this code category.
Many new initiates join the Monastry every day; high prominence for the tutorial node would verify that the Monastry is not just a place for 'experts' but a place for everyone whatever their level of understanding to participate and enjoy this high quality web site.
