Description

This task involves the work with of introducing logic (e.g. severity level) that will determine how and which Edit Checks/Suggestions are presented to people within the user experience when multiple are activated.

Stories

As someone who has demonstrated an interest/openness to receiving Edit Suggestions on an article/in a context where many Suggestions are available, I want to know what level of priority other volunteers have deemed each Suggestion to have so that A) I'm not given contradictory guidance and B) I can decide what Suggestion(s) to act on knowing how impactful each is likely to be.

Requirements

TBD

The need for this ticket emerged in the 7 Feb. 2023 with the Growth Team by way of T327333 and the Jan 2026 Editing Team discussion.

Some ideas @RHo, @Tgr, @nettrom_WMF, and @KStoller-WMF shared from what the Growth Team has learned through their work on the Add a link structured task:

Impose an upper limit on the number of checks people are presented with during each edit session. Growth Team converged on "3 suggestions" for the "Add a link" structured task after having launched with 5/6. See more in T301095
Consider enabling projects to configure/decide on/express opinions about the logic
