Background

Sometime between 2020 January 29 and 2020 February 14 the style of comment notifications sent out changed from something like this:

You can check the page at https://geo.coop/admin/content/comment/approval for
unapproved comments and https://geo.coop/admin/content/comment for published
comments.

To this:

Link to the new comment https://geo.coop/comment/184

(The subject line stayed the same, "New comment on Grassroots Economic Organizing".)

The latter is misleading for unpublished comments because the link loads the node on which the comment has been posted, which does not show the unpublished comment (this might be it's own configuration issue?)

But it could be so much better, something like this:

Joe (user account link if any or e-mail address) has left a comment on (node URL)

Hi I'm a blatant spammer leaving a wildly off-topic comment. Please delete me, thanks!

You can:

View the comment

Edit the comment

Delete the comment

Ideally this would be paired with "soft delete" functionality that puts comments into a 'deleted' workflow state that can be recovered, but that may be beyond this issue.

This also affects https://agaric.coop and would be an improvement we can make for all Drutopia sites and more, probably by way of improvements to https://www.drupal.org/project/comment_notify which @gnuget has recently become a maintainer of.
