* Communicate updated guidelines, project changes, and humanities-specific review standards through Discord and other collaboration tools.
* Respond to contributor questions involving visual analysis, attribution, periodization, cultural context, ethics, interpretation, and rubric application.
* Contact inactive trainers and QAs, encourage participation, document follow-ups, and flag availability concerns.
