Task description update
This is where I've started thinking about the "Open questions" listed in the task description: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bxaYJunuQCOVo4Ri8099EU6saSmmnyRITMSAoUkKOb0/edit#gid=0.

We'll discuss the approach I've represented in these slides as a team in the next two weeks (limited access for now): Talk page project/Notifications.

This task ended up taking form as the following:

  • A slide deck that communicates the impact we are trying to have with this work on notifications
  • Three tickets that encapsuate the notification-related interventions we plan to pursue in order to increase the likelihood Junior and Senior Contributors receive relevant responses to the things they say on talk pages.
