# Todo Deferred from the Phase 2 home-page simplification (commits after `ed2c272`). ## Recently from the council (the feed) Removed from `/pulse` in this pass. Currently no surface for member-authored contributions on the home page. The underlying `contributions` table, the `RecentlyFromTheCouncil` component, and the existing `/contribute` page all remain in place — only the home-page embed is gone. When we revisit this, options to consider: - Inline a compact "What members are saying" row inside the Roadmap + Latest from Fenja card — single quote, smallest possible treatment, doesn't repeat dispatch real-estate. - A dedicated Voices / Council notes section much further down the page with a stronger editorial frame. - Surface contributions only on the dedicated /contribute page (already exists) and rely on dispatches as the primary "what's moving" signal. ## This week's pulse voting block Removed from `/pulse` in this pass. The `pulses`, `votes`, vote-uniqueness constraint, admin Pulses tab, and the activity `voted` kind all remain — only the on-page voting card is gone. **Idea worth trying:** rather than rebuild as its own block, fold polling into the "Latest from Fenja" stream. A dispatch can be tagged as a poll (one of the existing kinds, or a new `poll` kind) and rendered inline with the 2–4 vote options + locked state + result bars. Single editorial channel instead of two competing "what should I read first" surfaces on the home page. If we go that way: - Schema: extend `dispatches` with a nullable `pulse_id` foreign key (or embed options on the dispatch directly). - Render: when a dispatch is poll-shaped, its excerpt block becomes the Pulse question + options; the "Read the full dispatch" affordance can stay for context/comments. - Admin: a checkbox on the dispatch form ("Attach an active poll") + inline options inputs. No need for the standalone Pulses tab once this lands — fold it in.
