Issues related to data quality and validation workflow
type: feature request
Adding functionality that currently does not exist
Problem
There are lots of projects that make very slow progress / get stuck with validation because the project creator restricts validation to teams and then assigns only a small and inactive team of validators to validate the project. Project creators do not necessarily know that they can add any team to validate a project and they may also not be aware that the 'HOT Global Validators' team is an excellent group of very active validators.
Solution
To ensure that more projects are available to validate by the HOT Global Validators team --> For any project in Tasking Manager, under the 'Permissions' section of the edit project page, if the project editor switches 'Validation' permissions to 'Only team members' (from the default of 'Only users with intermediate or advanced level') automatically populate 'HOT Global Validators' as a validation team.
Only do this once, the first time that the project editor changes validation permissions to 'Only team members'. This way the project creator can add additional teams, or if they like, opt-out by manually removing the HOT Global Validator team.
Alternatives
An alternative could be to add a fifth radio button under the 'Validation permissions' section which specifically calls out the HOT Global Validator Team, so could be an option for example stating: 'Only HOT validators'.
