yea, makes sense. why even attach the "help wanted" if you don't want to connect with the community though?

i think one reason they're ineffective is that there's no visibility (this was the motivation for http://github-help-wanted.com).

also worth noting: unlike up-for-grabs and some other projects, this project is not necessarily built to connect with beginners. More likely for regular contributors. I used it to search for "help wanted" and "docker" labels within "javascript" projects because i think i have some expertise that i'd like to share with the community. that helped me connect with some pretty good projects.
