Add rel=me to staff members' own website links
#552
Conversation
The `rel=me` is used to indicate profile equivalence [0] and is used by Mastodon's Link Verification [1]. If a staff member puts a link to their Fediverse account in the "website" field and cross-links the staff page on their Fediverse account (the link may include `#username` anchor) then the software will display the link as "green" thus giving others an indication that this person is indeed an Arch staff member.

Shouldn't the link be a full link with your mastadon account like |
(Source) The same thing on GitHub (random example that works: https://github.com/Foxboron) has the following markup: I guess the better approach would be to introduce "social link" but this is far more complex (at least for me 😅) as it would require additional DB field. (I hope I got you right, if not, happy to answer any questions). 👋 |

I mock-up of how it should look like:
