Hello,
The EasyFix page[1] is a list of various issues/bugs that are considered simple enough for new contributors to work with. Currently, from bugzilla, tickets that use the "EasyFix" key word are listed here.
The package review process suggests the use of "Trivial" on the Whiteboard for simpler tickets to aid new-comers. So, they seem to serve the same purpose as EasyFix. Would it be OK to also list these tickets on the EasyFix page?
I've already opened a PR here for this to done[3]. So if the community agrees with my assessment, we'll get that merged and publicise the "trivial" whiteboard marker more.
In the meantime, please mark your review tickets as "trivial" if they are appropriate for new-contributors to review unofficially when they're trying to get sponsored to the packagers group.

I don't see why not.
Fedora has been using "Trivial" for this purpose since before the Core/Extras merge but there's no particular reason for it (other than the dictionary meaning of the word matching up with the usage). It could certainly be changed if it makes something easier.

I don't think a change is warranted. It's trivial enough to include these tickets too. I'll go work on it.
