+# Summary
+**Difficulty:**
+    <!-- 
+    Give the issue a difficulty rating out of 5 stars, where 1 is the easiest issues.
+    The star rating images are available on charcoal-se.org:
+        [1/5 stars](https://charcoal-se.org/files/issue-diff-1.png)
+        [2/5 stars](https://charcoal-se.org/files/issue-diff-2.png)
+    and so on. If the issue is above a 3, consider carefully whether it's realistically doable for a new external contributor.
+    -->
+
+This Summary section should contain an overview of what the issue involves. Describe basically what it is - essentially repeating the original issue comment. You may also want to briefly mention some rationale for the issue or potential trip points a contributor might encounter.
+
+# Guidance
+This is a more detailed run-down of what the fix might look like. Include details like relevant files (and line numbers if that's useful), method and variable names, with links where relevant. Suggest how a contributor might go about fixing the issue, but try not to dictate - you're walking a line here between leaving people in the dark and doing all the work for them. Finish off by asking them to open a pull request when they're done and we'll review it together.
