Notifications Featured-Article

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

Whenever someone gets an article featured, it leaves the involved person unaware unless someone notifies him or her about it.
Not everyone will check out their Global Dashboard or the Article Community Page in time to notice a Feature.  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

Someone being given a notification regarding their article being featured would certainly brighten their day, I would think.  

What are other uses for this feature request?

Not that I can think of at the moment.

The Team's Response

This request has not reached the required number of votes or community support during its voting time   Considering the fact that in order to see a notification it means you have already logged in on World Anvil and that if you have done correctly you have landed on the Global Dashboard this seems to be a moot point. The only case I can see this being of some value is because you haven't logged in the day you were featured. If that is the case, as a feature, undermines, slightly the idea of daily community engagement.   In addition 99% of the time, if you get featured the chances are that you have received, quite a lost. out of nowhere likes and comments which ... kind of made obvious.

    I love this idea! I happened to be featured once, and only knew because of the sudden flood of likes and comments! Felt strange for an older article to start getting attention for "no reason!"

    This is so awesome! Though I have never had the honor of being featured yet on WorldAnvil (at least to my knowledge XD) I am the very person who would not know this until it is too late lol. Things like this have happened to me before elsewhere. Thanks for suggesting! God bless you.

    Oh heck yes, this is a must in my eyes. I know that people get notified in Discord, but not everyone checks that.

    Not a bad idea at all. It would also be good to kind of say thanks, as it were. I feel strange when people congratulate me and I didnt realize I was featured, plus saying thank you doesnt feel right when it's been several days. XD

    It would be nice to have semi-permanent indicator of recognition. I'm one of those who wouldn't notice.
