ppelberg created subtask T416533: [SPIKE] Document technical needs to surface Edit Check-powered Edit Suggestions outside of VE.

@ppelberg, is this referring to potentially surfacing suggestions in the source editor, or to readers, or both?

Good question! This ticket is intended to track the open-ended set of places we might consider surfacing suggestions. Read: within the source editor, read mode, WikiProjects and likely, many more places.

This is a page Dreamyshade built for themselves that defines a topic and includes metadata about the pages within it, so that they can answer the questions, "What do I do edit?

One idea might be to make it easy for Dreamyshade to self-select signals they think would be helpful in answering the questions above. Alternatively, we might consider making it possible for Dreamyshade to pull out a list of suggestions that they can in turn filter to more easily identify immediately actionable things for them to consider working on:
