The devguide suggests to add reviewers to the authors@R field of the DESCRIPTION like so
person("Bea", "Hernández", role = "rev",
comment = "Bea reviewed the package (v. X.X.XX) for rOpenSci, see <https://github.com/ropensci/software-review/issues/116>"),
in particular, to add the URL of the review issue in the person(comment) field with angle brackets.
The URL is shown for some other packages (as text, not as a hyperlink), like bikedata or stplanr, but only because they do not use angle brackets, see bikedata's DESCRIPTION.
Apparently this gets by CRAN's bouncers at the moment as stplanr just updated on CRAN. However, WRE demands angle brackets for URL in other DESCRIPTION fields, so I assume they might be less lenient in the future.
I suspect that the URL is parsed as an HTML tag because of the angle brackets? Is this something that can be fixed in rotemplate or is this an upstream, i.e. pkgdown issue?
