Closed japharl closed 1 month ago

If possible, please define what a "concerning" contributor test means. Eg.

          Failing
                - has concerning contributors
                  733 found, 0 permitted
                  Both - affiliation count 2

Which contributors / why were they (all) flagged? What affiliations were concerning?

Thanks for asking! This is documented on the Hipcheck website as part of the Complete Guide to Hipcheck. We do have a goal of improving the clarity of Hipcheck's output, but it's not on the immediate roadmap. I'd guess this would be more of a focus starting around the 3.7 milestone.
