Admin emails pointing to the dashboard

Incorrect. I am saying

As the sole admin and staff on two Discourse self hosted sites, I have never in the last five years seen a single ‘cry wolf’ notification about necessary admin actions on the dashboard, that when clicked or tapped upon, showed nothing at all on said dashboard.

That sounds plausible to me, and that is the specific example I was looking for! @neil do we nag about this? Seems to me the nag should be “just in time”, that is, when you smash the “make this person a staff member” button?
