Profiles + 5 for the Future: Create a way to measure impact from organizer efforts to official meetup groups #662

It would be great if the "Recent impact" section could give people credit for organizing meetups in the meetup program. This section:

For example, I am an organizer of the WordPress Accessibility Meetup and organize two meetups per month. This group is an official WordPress Meetup.

Meetup's API allows you to query events by the group, and the response includes host member ids. If we add these fields to the profile editor:

  1. Meetup Group URL
  2. Meetup Member ID or URL

Then we could do a few things to better surface contributor efforts to meetup:

  1. In the .wp-p2-links section, add a link to "Amber Hinds on Meetup" that links to the member page on Meetup.com (example: https://www.meetup.com/members/139421922/)
wp-p2-links section in the header on wp.org
  1. Add in the existing "Contributions" section, meetups that were organized by the user: Query Group for past events where the Meetup eventHosts { memberId } matches the provided member ID and list them with the date, time, and title.

  2. Figure out a way of calculating the contribution and include it in the previously mentioned "Recent Impact" section. If quantifying this, I would take the start and end time of the event to get event duration + add at least 1 hour to it to account for planning time.
