Ombuds commission/2021 workflow updates/Form

Similar with Stewards' contact form, it is proposed that the Ombuds Commission start using a form to receive complaints from community. With that form, it's expected that the commission will have more organized and straightforward messages.

It's going to be used the Stewards' contact form as a startpoint, but the plan is to have one more adequate to our needs.

Link

• Special page placed on Meta
• Proposed link: Special:Contact/ombudscommission
  • The account Ombuds commission was created for that purpose (mail address is the Ombuds’ list).
  • Messages will keep being sent to the OC mailing list (cu-ombuds-llistswikimediaorg)

Header

There's no special need on the header. Username, mail address and subject should all be required.

Settings
