Suggest to translate articles that became featured (and relevant to the user interests)
Open, LowPublic

Description

When an article becomes featured (or marked as good quality), it is a good moment to consider it for translation. Users that participated in similar articles may be interested in translating the featured article.
Similar articles can include those in equivalent categories, or linked to/from the featured article.

As an example: Bob, who had edited the article on "Sharks" in Hindi Wikipedia from English, gets a notification when the "White shark" article in English becomes featured: "Hey Bob, the "White shark" article became featured recently in English but it is still missing in Hindi. Do you want to translate it?"

For all practical purposes T111028 is the implementation of this desire, please merge.

@Pginer-WMF, is it worth keeping this as a separate task for articles that are both relevant and featured, or should it be just marked as a dupe?

This specific ticket is about a more direct communication of an opportunity to translate (e.g., with a notification).
Once T111028 is available, the current ticket may become irrelevant (i.e., users already find the suggestions connected with the topics they edited in the suggestions tab) or it can be complementary to it (i.e., some suggestions may be worth surfacing them more with a notification). So I'd keep the ticket as lower priority than other suggestion-related ones and reevaluate it later.
