In addition, the selected posts you forward should have been written in the last couple of months, as stated in this thread:
Merit & new rank requirements. There is on 2014 post and three 2018 posts in the selection that do not meet that criteria. That is a formalism though. What @Quickseller pointed out is more important, since it goes to show how you would subjectively select unmerited/undermerited posts to merit.
