Howdy folks, I'm Michael, working remotely from Taiwan. I'm leading intelligent automation efforts at Axelerant and built WordPress plugins years back until I went offline publicly. Now, I am coming back around to build awareness of what's possible with empowering people through automation. More about me.

Hey! Having contributed to the "Moderate and help write Showcase entries" initiative during WCAsia 2024, I noticed a potential for improvement.
At the moment we're not communicating to the applicants whose submissions we reject. I believe it would be appropriate to send them a follow-up message explaining the reason for rejection and not leaving them hanging. Some automation could be established between choosing rejection reason in the Google Sheet and sending a message. Wdyt?
Since some entries are from several years back, I would recommend rolling out the follow-up communication only to the fresh submissions (starting from Jan 2024).

Thank you @michael-cannon for joining the Marketing table for Contributor Day!

@marijago I think this is a valuable point, and we should move it to a discussion (to explore the idea and come up with a solution), since I'm not sure we have a solution at the moment

Hi @marijago I moved your point to a new discussion here. Hopefully we can get some more folks involved in that discussion and when some clear next-steps are defined, we can create an Issue to address it
