Let a worker reference a specific task when they ask questions on the forum #6

A worker is trying to reference "some of these" tasks to give feedback. This can be difficult to establish common ground: which tasks specifically have the issues? Can I see them? It feels like it's working around a lack of ability to comment on a specific task. Example: https://forum.daemo.org/t/count-the-number-of-statistical-tests-in-a-research-paper/322/10

The proposal

I propose we find a way to let a worker ask a question about a specific task, which gets linked on the forum. That way the requester can look.

Open question: would workers use this? The worker thinks so: "Yes - I think that would be helpful to call out a specific task so that on my side and yours we know specifically what we’re talking about."

I think this may already be possible, like by linking to the specific task: https://www.daemo.org/task/61141/

The question is whether we want to make this even easier.

Right now if the task URL would work and allow the requester to see the task that the worker is calling out, then we're good.

This imports a proposal from @mbernst: https://github.com/crowdresearch/daemo/issues/1028 and updates it with the newer proposal template. Please review the original to see existing comments.

This was a proposal I initiated, so I should make sure it aligns with the requirements. So adding a few more details:

Slack username of the person or people who created the proposal @Michael Bernstein

What problem is being solved? If feasible, specific evidence or examples (e.g., screen shots, data) in support of the understanding of the problem.

Given above, with a link to an example

I think the long-term implications of this proposal are:

Summary

We have agreed that there should be some way to communicate to the worker the link that they can send to the requester if they have a question about a specific task. TBD: a specific design, in a future proposal.

As per discussion today, the goal moving forward will be to have this summary prior to the weekly meeting, so everyone knows what has been agreed upon.
