####User story & summary:
As an experienced editor who visits the Homepage**experienced editor** who visits the Newcomer Homepage,
- I do not want to be assigned a Mentor, because I no longer need newcomer support.
- I want to learn about the Mentorship feature, so I can consider supporting new editors myself.
As a **Mentor**, I don't want a not want experienced editors assigned to me as Mentorees, because I'm not a new editorit creates confusion and reduces my ability to focus on newcomers who need help.
As an experienced editor who visits the Homepage, I want to learn about Mentorship, because I care about supporting new editors.
####Background & research:
This task is important because:
1. The current logic is confusing both for Mentors and eExperienced mentee that isEditors who are auto-assigned a menteeMentor
2. Mentors are busy, we should work towards reducing the number of mentees they support.
3. We need more Mentors! This is a logical way to spread the word and encourage more editors to join Mentorship.
4. This is another small way that we can "level up" new editors as they "graduate" on from being a mentee, to being invited to act as a mentor.
5. Mentors are [[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Growth_Team_features/Mentor_list#Suggestion_to_%22retire%22_mentees | Asking for this]]:
> The homepage tab could be tweaked to say after the six months something like "Congratulations, you are now experienced enough not to need a mentor! Use the Help Desk if you need advice from now on." instead of giving a name. I'd also suggest that anyone who activates the newcomer homepage when they already have over six month's experience should get that message. (I was amused that when I activated the tab to see what it did, I was auto-assigned someone less experienced than I am.)
####Questions:
ForHow should we handle junior editors who first meet the Mentorship minimum requirements and already have the Homepage enabled,have Mentors and then pass this threshold where they are eligible to become a Mentor? should we consider a Homepage GuidedTour or notification so the change to the Mentorship module isn't confusing?
For experienced editors, should this module be dismissible?
- Ideally yes, however the Homepage doesn't yet include personal settings or the ability to dismiss or reenable modules. So perhaps this should be considered separately?
For autocreated accounts: when experienced editors navigate to a different language wiki (and enable the Homepage), do we consider their Global edit count, or just their local wiki edit count?
- We should aim for simplification here, this is really an edge case currently since autocreated accounts do NOT currently receive Growth features: {T292090}.
We should keep the copy succinct, but link out to further details if needed. Where should we link?

(Some wikis might want to link to their local wiki page, like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Growth_Team_features/Mentor_list)

Then the Mentorship module invites me to consider becoming a Mentor rather than assigning me a Mentor.
