More, faster note requests. People on X can request a Community Note on any post. Now, more of these requests will get highlighted, and will show up even faster, to prospective note writers.
This is made possible by new Requestor Helpfulness Scores. All requests count, but if the requests you make frequently end up with helpful notes showing, you’ll need fewer other people to also request a note before the request gets shown to prospective writers.

The form to report a Community Note needs to be revised. There is no provision for reporting anyone abusing the CNs process. The OP below is tagged with the exact same CN by "lucky nectarine flamingo" four times. This is not the only comment this user has done this on.
This is clearly an abuse in an attempt to skew the response rate of the note.

Why do my accounts keep getting restricted and shut down? Even my premium X account?
I don’t know of any rules I’m breaking?
Please check into this. Even this new account I opened here is already restricted in 2 days? What does X have against me? @DeborahLeeJah @elonmusk
I'm one of the top Community Notes contributors mainly writing in Japan. I think it’s great that the range of posts AI can write notes for has expanded.
However, it's quite distracting that even posts with absolutely no need for a note, where I can't even guess why someone requested one, are now being surfaced. For example, posts that are simply opinions and don’t contain any factual errors.
While calm contributors like myself can ignore them, some others might write low-quality notes just because a request is visible. That’s a real problem.
I believe X should separate the standards for note requests intended for humans and those for AI. The current system might work fine for AI, but for humans the bar needs to be a bit higher. There’s just too much noise.
The link also says “We expect these criteria to evolve, with the goal that requests are frequently found valuable to contributors, and not noisy.” But as it stands now, the requests are far noisier than before, and the feature is not only useless but frustrating and distracting. It was better before. I think this should first be rolled out to AI writers only.
