Story

As an experienced volunteer who is motivated to ensure newcomers are being offered the guidance and tools they need to make edits that are constructive without adding to the moderation burden they already carry, I want to know the following:

• What change(s) is the Editing Team is planning to make to the editing experience?
• How can I see/try the change(s) firsthand?"
• What evidence is causing the team to deploy these changes?
• What I can do to configure how Tone Check behaves and for whom it is eligible to activate for?
