One weakness of the current editorial workflow[1] is that there's no obvious way to indicate that an article needs a featured image. There are four possibilities I see. What does the team think? 1. Create a new column Advantages: Easy to see which articles need images so that people can easily claim those. Disadvantages: Adds another step to the flow and doesn't represent well that images can be done in parallel to editing. 2. Use a tag Advantages: Color coding means the card indicates the article needs an image in most view. Disadvantages: It's not clear what the color coding means unless you already know. 3. Use a custom field Advantages: Can have multiple choices to represent state (needed, in progress, done). Disadvantages: Not visible without opening the card 4. Use a task within the user story Advantages: Can be assigned and have it's own state. We could also potentially do the same for editing, though that might be redundant. Disadvantages: Not visible without opening the card. [1] https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-magazine/workflow/
How about a combination of 2 and 3? You get the high visibility flag to open the card and the state can be shown. The color could explained very briefly at the top of the kanban page perhaps "Blue cards need image".
