Hi. You can go ahead and put in the request now -- it generally takes about 7-10 days to get an answer, which is deliberate to allow people to do the week of editing and/or put up a community request for a week before I look at them.

In terms of the blog post or forum, I will only check for logged in users in assessing whether there are other contributors, and even then, they need to be consistently editing over some time, not just an account that edited on one day. It is difficult to tell if IPs are transitory or the same person even if they do happen to edit for more than a day or two. But if you feel there is a community of consistent IP editors then a blog post would be nice and certainly won't hurt.

In any case, a response to the blog/forum isn't needed in most cases; it just needs to be posted so people are aware and have the opportunity to comment if they wish to do so.
