You must have misunderstood. Any chance you could re-read what I wrote, noting "for the packages you have submitted" where you seem to have replaced the last word with "reviewed".
To be painfully verbose, you include the relevant information in _your_ ticket. As in:
Here's my new package submission. I need a sponsor. Please note that I'm a long-time Fedora ambassador and am the upstream developer for this software. Please also see the following informal reviews I have done: link to ticket 1 link to ticket 2
Yes, that's certainly one way to do it, and is even mentioned in the "How to get sponsored" wiki[1]:
"Go ahead and link to other package review requests where you've left comments and reviews (More on reviews below)."
but that's a separate problem. The shear amount of documentation/guidelines there are.
