Auto generated messages/notifications #1490

Within the ongoing work with @hotosm/major and @fitoria, we want to define some autogenerated messages that are send out to mappers. This is related to the regular updates that shall be send to project managers (https://github.com/hotosm/tasking-manager/issues/1377).

First ideas:

xamanu commented 5 years ago

When projects are completed we could alert the users and thank them for their contributions

In addition I would like to propose similar projects. Either by region or topic.

When other contributions are submitted to the projects where the user is active

This can be easy turn into a lot of messages, and I we might scare our users away (from reading messages).

Announce new projects for campaigns that the user has already participated in

I like the idea a lot. And this is related to the first message, when we potentially want to recommend similar projects. How do we define similarity (now and after the redesign),

@xamanu Can i work on this?

xamanu commented 5 years ago

We need to first think more about the messages we want to send.
