I think the easiest would be to use the GitLab tags. Hopefully, we will soon use
Gitlab for everything and then it won't be a problem.

For example, promo will just need to go to these two links to find all the

we need:

 

* https://invent.kde.org/groups/kde/-/issues?label_name%5B%5D=Noteworthy
* https://invent.kde.org/groups/kde/-/merge_requests?label_name%5B%5D=Noteworthy
