Research direction
Start by tracing the post's three-dot menu and the Community Notes page sections, then review how note requests, contributor permissions, and post ordering are currently represented. Define the allowed requester roles and prioritization metric before implementation; done means users can request a note and eligible posts appear in a clearly ordered "Most Wanted" section.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
One issue I've noticed is the inability to request community notes for a post. Furthermore, there is no way to prioritize which posts should (potentially) have a note added before other posts.
Describe the solution you'd like
I believe that verified users/Community Notes contributors should have an option to click the 3 dots in the top-right of a post and "Request a Community Note". In addition, along with the "Rated helpful" and "New" sections, the community notes page could have a "Most Wanted" section that displays posts sorted by the number of users who requested a Note.
It seems very reasonable that posts where many verified users/Community Notes contributors have requested a note should be prioritized before posts with fewer requests. I believe adding this feature could increase the overall reach/impact of Community Notes by making sure that the misleading posts reaching the most users would be addressed first.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I believe there is room for discussion regarding who should be allowed to "Request a Community Note" (all users? only verified users? only Community Notes contributors?)
Additionally, whether posts in the "Most Wanted" section should be sorted by # requests or overall traffic/how popular the post is.
