EDITORIAL REVIEW · Workflow idea

Help contributors find a useful starting point without making an issue look easier than it is.

For work involving public project issues, proposed contributor opportunities, and a newsletter draft, use this review to check the evidence before action. Organize selected project issues into a source-linked newsletter draft for a maintainer to review. Issue status can change, reports may include security or personal details, and reuse rules vary by project. Respect repository licenses and access limits, exclude private or sensitive issues, verify labels and links, avoid overstating difficulty, and require a maintainer to approve the audience and message before sending.
