Making 'blurb' more visible?

On my recent PR (#340 on GitHub, fwiw), I got a Bedevere check failure for not including a NEWS entry. Couldn't remember the name of the tool used to create them, and had to go digging quite a bit before I found it. Is it possible to add extra info to the failure message, linking to https://devguide.python.org/committing/#what-s-new-and-news-entries ? That would have saved a fair amount of fiddling around. Not sure if this is a workflow question or a Bedevere question, my apologies if I ought to have put this elsewhere. ChrisA

The status check already provides a "details" link to https://devguide.python.org/committing/#what-s-new-and-news-entries which mentions blurb. Maybe a direct link to the tool from there would help?

Nope, this is the right place to ask. -Brett

Hmm, I clicked on Details and didn't get to that page. Now I'm trying to figure out what I *did* get to. And am getting more and more confused, because the link is right there.
Thanks. But it's beginning to look like I had some sort of bizarre glitch... either in GitHub, or between my ears... Let's just blame this one on "between my ears" for now. I've no idea what happened. Sorry for the noise! ChrisA
