For now, an unordered list of random thoughts will suffice:

Useful Bugzilla queries for people new to bug triage:

  • Unconfirmed DUPEME bugs - Someone thinks each bug here has a duplicate in the system.
  • Unconfirmed Critical Browser-General Bugs - These bugs report crashes or major loss of function. They should be categorized and if possible reproduced.
  • Recent Duplicates - A cross-section of bugs recently marked as Duplicate. Use this along with Find-as-you-type to find commonly duped bugs matching certain keywords. Or, customize the query to search only a specific component for dupes. Searching for other duplicates is a great way to find out if an unconfirmed bug is a duplicate.
  • Popular bugs - Bugs with more than 15 votes. This is another useful query to use for finding dupes.
  • Recent bugs with worksforme comments - These are unconfirmed bugs where at least one commenter used the phrase wfm or worksforme. Try to reproduce and report your results.
  • Very old unconfirmed bugs - Bugs that have gone 450 days without any change. Check to see if they're still relevant or reproducible.
  • WFM in most recent comment - This page links to bugs by platform whose most recent comment contained a phrase suggesting a worksforme resolution.

(When adding bugs links to this list, please use this bookmarklet to shorten the query urls. If you're going to post the link without any code, use Tinyurl or SnURL)
