GitHub's note to read CONTRIBUTING.md during the issue creation process is a bit too easy to ignore. The text of the ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md file is added directly to the issue body text input field, making this note impossible to miss. It is hoped this will increase compliance with the Contributing Rules.
A similar template could be added for pull requests but it's not clear whether contributing rules non-compliance of pull requests is a significant problem here.
The issue creation page as it will appear after this PR is merged:
