📢 Important Guidelines for Contributors to PySnippets

[UTSAVS26]

Hello PySnippets Community! 🌟

As we continue to build and enhance our PySnippets project, it’s essential to establish clear guidelines for contribution levels, points criteria, and task assignments. This will help us maintain the quality of contributions and ensure fair recognition for everyone involved.

1. Level and Points Criteria 🏅

Please keep the following in mind when assigning levels to pull requests (PRs):

• Level 1: 10 Points 🥇
• Level 2: 25 Points 🥈
• Level 3: 45 Points 🥉

I will not assign Level 2 or Level 3 to PRs that consist solely of project additions or README.md files. Such contributions, while valuable, do not meet the criteria for higher levels. Only PRs that involve significant enhancements, like adding new features or fixing bugs, should receive higher labels.

Assign Tasks Based on Complexity

Ensure that tasks are assigned based on their complexity and use the appropriate labels for tracking contributions effectively. 📊

2. Important Points for Contributors

• Meaningful Contributions: Focus on building a GitHub profile with substantial badges and PRs.
• Manual Verification: Our team will verify most PRs, especially from those on the leaderboard.
• Avoid Spam: Please do not submit spam PRs or repeatedly address similar issues.
• GitHub Profile: Meaningful contributions can lead to increased perks and opportunities from project admins.

Meaningful Contribution Guidelines

• Beginners can contribute by updating README files, workflows, or documentation.
• PRs related to README, workflows, or documentation will be evaluated for completeness and may be upgraded.
• Avoid creating multiple document change issues; instead, communicate with the contributor working on the documentation for future updates.
• Follow a first-come, first-served approach for issues.
• You may only participate in one role: PA, Mentor, or Contributor.

3. Issue Submission Rules

To maintain order and clarity, you may raise only one issue at a time. Do not create additional issues until the current one is assigned to you. Any PR submitted before an issue is assigned will be marked as invalid.

Fill Out Templates

It is crucial to fill out all details required in the issue and PR templates. If these details are not provided, the issue or PR will be closed, and you will need to raise a new one.

Existing Issues and PRs

If your issues and PRs have already been labeled, there’s no need to worry about those specific assignments. However, please follow the guidelines for any future submissions.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! Let’s work together to create a thriving community where everyone’s contributions are valued and recognized. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Happy coding! 💻✨
