I am not shaming. If I were shaming, I would post examples that show
who did what. For the record, I am not aware of you dismissing any
kind of contributions or contributors. As far as I have seen you are
always very encouraging to new contributors.
I am merely encouraging people to review the submissions they
received, and be welcoming to these contributions. Some people might
be ignoring contributions just because they forgot to check, or
because they didn't have appropriate notification settings in their
Salsa project and never got the email notification about a new MR
being posted (screenshot that explains it best at
https://wiki2025.debian.org/wiki/Salsa).
