@Akshat111111 is attempting to deploy a commit to the The GraphQL Foundation Team on Vercel. A member of the Team first needs to authorize it. |

Thanks for writing this Akshat. I'll let others comment but my thoughts are that posts on graphql.org should be voiced as a "We", not "I". It'd be OK if this were a testimony but since this is more of a feedback from a community organized event, I'd like it better if it were written from the point of view of the team. I don't think we have any guidelines around this though so it might be a personal thing. Whatever we decide, we should document in CONTRIBUTING.md |
Sure! Make sense. |

@martinbonnin Martin, I would like to start taking articles written from Ambassadors in their own voice. I want to tag this as an Ambassador story and eventually we would have a number of them we can then spotlight in the Ambassador pages perhaps. |

@jemgillam sounds good to me. Suggestion to rename the tag to As a reader, I want to be able to filter on content. Just as I wouldn't do a |

I have no idea if the tag can be two words, if so then that is definitely preferred! I noticed a lint error on the first sub heading, looking back I can see many blog posts don't have a H1 and instead start on using H2 headings. Is this lint rule new? I don't think it's needed for blog content. |
We have
Not sure if it's new but agreed we probably don't need it. |

Added my experience of API Days Singapore as a blog.
