Personally I find the shout out requirement to be truly inspiring. I really like that. However, once again here is what happens to me personally.

I get excited to submit to coffee Times Publications. Then I realize oh my God I didn’t do the shout out Then I go to my lists, where I store the articles read. Quote the article and give credit to author. In other words it is just that remembering, going back, editing etc that comes across as an impediment. I also feel so fulfilled and blessed when the quoted author responds with a thank you.

My question to Coffee Times
1. Can you post the link to any changes in the Shout Out requirement?

Congratulations for the achievement and thanks to the entire team of Medium, authors abc and editors
