Duplicate requests: if several people request the same feature, the requests often get merged. Check whether your feature has already been suggested before posting.
Request: a per-category review queue
Worth separating two things that post #34 runs together.
Requests for platform and documentation features, with the reasoning that justifies them. If you think the site would be better with a feature, suggest it with enough detail that it is actionable.

Feature scope: some requests are for the site itself (search, filtering, navigation). Some are for the documentation (new topics, different formats). Scope helps prioritise.
Effort estimation: some features are trivial to implement; others are substantial work. Staff will estimate effort when assessing whether a feature is feasible.
Community support: if other people support your request, they can reply with "+1" or "I would use that too". Widely-requested features are prioritised.
