Will There Be A Notification On The Wayfarer Website When Guidelines Have Changed?

This is mostly directed to Niantic in this case but over the years constant redefining of the rules have drastically improved the whole Waypoint Network. The biggest issue now is clear indication of what has been changed. On the current website most folks do not even notice the changes of what has changed in the criteria and it is hard to address the topic since there are no notices of change.
Would it be possible to indicate the new guideline changes on the main page of the Wayfarer website above the showcase category so people could clearly see what has changed?

Thanks for the feedback @mweepigeon@mwithz, we're definitely aware of this challenge and are working with the Wayfarer team to discuss how best to surface this information.

@NianticCasey-ING Maybe each time there's a change, a locked thread in Guideline Clarifications or Announcements could be posted to by the Niantic team. Then anyone who wants a notification can just ⭐ that post and they'll get a notification whenever there's a comment.
I also suggested when the January clarifications were released in February that a big banner show up like the message you receive when you earn a new Upgrade. Forcing the user to acknowledge it by a vote would be even better.
Speaking of which, will we be seeing February or March clarifications any time soon? I know I have a lot of outstanding questions.
Banner on wayfarer or message to acknowledge before starting reviewing would be nice :)
@Imergera-PGO That's a great idea!
A push notification to all games should be easy to add. With a pop up when we log in to notify players of changes in help.
