#10838 Change users ML footer to point directly to issues
Closed: Fixed 2 years ago by kevin. Opened 2 years ago by bcotton.

Describe what you would like us to do:


Someone on the users mailing list said the "report spam to pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure" in the footer doesn't seem to go anywhere useful. It might be helpful if we linked directly to the issues tab (or perhaps to new_issue with a new "report spam" template?)

When do you need this to be done by? (YYYY/MM/DD)


Time permitting


How does:

Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue

look?

Or we could do a url shortener and populate the title/content?
Or we could do a template.

I think this is good enough. I'm not sure a template adds much, unless we start getting reports of spam with no useful information about what list it's on. Alternatively, we could use

https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue?title=Users+mailing+list+spam

as the link, which gives us the title without having to use a URL shortener. (My concern there is that people would be hesitant to follow an unknown link)

Either the change you suggested or the alternate with a title works, IMO. The only concern is that people might not look to see if it has been reported yet and we'd end up with a lot of duplicates. But I suppose that's a problem we can deal with if it happens.

The link with title overflows the 80 col footer a lot.

And this footer is used on all the lists. ;)

So, lets go with the simple one...
