Description

While this is a central repository for the Open Documentation Academy, documentation issues are likely (and properly) recorded directly in other repositories. However, for ease of use and visibility, these issues should also exist in the ODA.

There should be an established, automated and obvious way (e.g. by adding a label) to get issues included here

Possible solution: an action in each participating repo which picks up on a unique label, similar to https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-issue-copier

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how GitHub Actions can automate issue copying between repositories. Review the GitHub Issue Copier action referenced in the issue and understand its configuration. Determine the label that should trigger the import and which workflows to add in each participating repository.
