Description
# Problem
At the moment, only projects with `approved: false, approvalRequested: true` can be approved, which, in a non-direct way, supports the API requiring the presence of long description for approved projects
- an org owner can create a project without long description
- an admin cannot approve such a project through the UI
- if an admin tries to approve such a project through the API directly, they will get a validation error
- an org owner can request approval once they provide a long description
- an admin can approve such a project both through the UI and the API directly
Really, in the background, this only affects the admins and no one else, so I'm not sure it's worth our time to change anything at the moment, but what we could do, is support approving a project as long as they have a `longDescritption`, without necessarily being in `approvalRequested` status
It would take 30 minutes to do, but i'm not sure it's wise or useful, simply because there may be a scenario where an owner might provide an incomplete long description, but not be ready for approval yet.
