Pandas version checks
- I have checked that the issue still exists on the latest versions of the docs on

Documentation problem
I don't believe it is documented anywhere but I think there is a two assigned task limit for issues. Currently, whenever I type "take" the bot doesn't auto assign me a task.
I think this should be documented as I have one completed issue which is still waiting for a PR review, and another which needs further discussion during a meeting. It's not like I'm just randomly taking tasks. Other people could run into something similar. A maintainer should verify that there is a limit before we edit the documentation first though.
Example:
#61583 (comment)
#61511 (comment)
Suggested fix for documentation
Just add that there is a limit to the number of issues you can concurrently take and to contact a maintainer if you run into issues and need more (up to maintainer discretion on the last part)

Hi! I’m a new contributor interested in making my first PR and this seems like a great starter issue. May I please take this up? I’ll wait for confirmation before starting. Thanks! 😊

@SnehaDeshmukh28 Absolutely! In the meantime you could also check what other issues are open to contribute to, usually documentation stuff is pretty simple, otherwise sometimes issues are tagged as "good first issue" which you can also consider looking at

@eicchen Thank you so much for the quick response and approval! 😊
I'll start working on this issue and also explore other open and "good first issue" tagged ones for potential contributions.

I had 4 issues assigned to me and take works. In addition, here is the job that makes the assignment, there is no consideration of how many issues are assigned.
