Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
MapRoulette is a tool and its really good and i think something good. But, maybe it makes things TO easy, as there is quite some discussion in the forum about it. I personally think one way to reduce problems is to have a mandatory link to the forum where the challenge is discussed.
It needs some discussion, of course, but problems need to be adressed.
Describe the solution you'd like
A field in the form that is mandatory with a link to the discussion forum. It should be checked and the only valid url should start with https://community.openstreetmap.org/ - no other discussion-places should be allowed because this is the place where most openstreetmap mappers are present in a kinda central place.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the challenge creation form and its existing validation flow, then read the linked OpenStreetMap community discussion for the surrounding context. Done means the form requires a discussion link and accepts only URLs beginning with https://community.openstreetmap.org/.
