Add “credit given by maintainer” indication to Credit & committing fieldset
>>> [!note] Migrated issue <!-- Drupal.org comment --> <!-- Migrated from issue #3032181. --> Reported by: [drumm](https://www.drupal.org/user/3064) >>> <p>From <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/drupalorg/-/work_items/2972225" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/drupalorg/-/work_items/2972225</a></span>:</p> <blockquote><p>Let's say you have a long running thread with 20+ people having commented. Currently, half of them have credit.<br> Someone who has commented before comes by the issue and leaves a meaningless comment.<br> With the current UI, there is no way to know if they already had credit before that comment and should keep credit, or if they are only just now getting credit.</p> <p>The only way I have found to figure this out is to unpublish their last comment and examine the credit field to see what the new value is, before republishing their comment and leaving your own comment. But that is only an option for me because I have elevated d.o permissions, not due to maintainer permissions.</p> <p>It needs to have some indicator that "this person is about to get credit when you save but didn't have credit before".</p></blockquote> <p>I&rsquo;ve experimented a bit with adding something like <code>&lt;abbr title="Credit given by maintainer"&gt;&#10003;&lt;/abbr&gt;</code> somewhere on the row. If it is in the same table cell as the username &amp; attribution, the columns might not line up well. Width/complexity can also be at a premium in this table. I think I&rsquo;m leaning toward this approach.</p> <p>I also thought of some styling, like a background color, around checkbox or table row. This saves on width, but would probably need a key to explain what means what.</p>
