You might wish to rename CONTRIBUTING.md to something like SUBMITTING_ISSUES.md.
In most open source projects, contributing refers to contributing code not opening tickets for issues or requests. Even Github's help documents align with this understanding:
https://github.com/blog/1184-contributing-guidelines https://github.com/blog/1184-contributing-guidelines
I have never used uBlock or looked at its project pages before now and would have skipped-past CONTRIBUTING.md if I was looking for issue-reporting guidelines. The current title doesn't even tally with the first line of the document. There is also no reference to the appropriate issue-reporting process from README.md.
- gorhill 10y agoThe link to CONTRIBUTING appears at the top of the issue template when one click the "New issue" button. This the top line which appears when opening a new issue: > Read first: <https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#> https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.m...
- erikb 10y agoOkay. For me it looks like the complaint was unsubstantiated. Thanks for the detailed discussion, gorhill. And thanks for maintaining uBO. Using it happily since it became a topic on HN.
