The issue

There have been many projects added to this list, which is great. We are doing our best to explain and guide participants as smoothly as possible but it is difficult to see how a project will be percieved when it's actually being worked with. What I mean is that the only way to find the holes and missing pieces of a project idea is through actually doing it.

The idea

I think there should be a way for somebody who completed (or worked on) a project to give feedback on the quality of it. For example:

  • Was it too difficult or easy for its level?
  • Were there enough resources listed to get started?
  • Was it difficult to understand the objectives and questions?
  • Was the proposed time to complete out of proportion?
  • Were there any gotchas that you found but were not mentioned?
  • What would you change, add or remove from the project idea?

Proposed solution

I think creating an issue template "[Participant] Project feedback" with the above mentioned questions would be a great way for participants to voice their opinion on where a project can or should be improved. The key is to encourage this kind of feedback and make it as effortless as possible. This would allow the project creator to see the missing pieces and be able to improve on them for future participants.

@what-name I think we incorporate those right into the project entry, Perhaps at the bottom, we can have an area for these questions if they have to submit a new issue, that will add a level of friction.
