#8043 new enhancement

Notify uploaders via email when their WordPress.tv video is accepted

Description

Currently, uploaders who submit videos to WordPress.tv receive no notification when their video is approved and published. This can lead to uncertainty about the status of their submission.

Proposed Enhancement:
Introduce an automated notification system that sends an email to the uploader once their video is approved and published. The email should include:

  • Confirmation of approval
  • A link to the published video
  • Optionally, thanks and guidelines for sharing

Benefits:

  • Improves communication and transparency with contributors
  • Encourages engagement and sharing of published content
  • Aligns with WordPress’s community values by acknowledging contributions

For this to happen, the upload form should have additional fields:

  • Optin/Optout option: Notify me when my video is approved
  • Email: Email field

I'm not quite sure how possible to pull email address through WP.org profile data, so having an email field is better option
