-Make sure you think of the following things:
+1. [Contributing](#contributing)
+2. [Submitting an Issue](#issues)
+3. [Submitting a Pull Request](#pull-requests)
 
-## Issue
- * Search through the existing (and closed) issues first, see if you can get your answer there.
- * Double check the result manually, because it could be an external issue. 
- * Post logs! Without seeing what is going on, I can't reproduce the error.
- * Also check the logs before submitting, obvious errors like permission or http errors are often not related to CP.
- * What is the movie + quality you are searching for?
- * What are you're settings for the specific problem?
- * What providers are you using? (While you're logs include these, scanning through hundred of lines of log isn't our hobby)
- * Post the logs from config directory, please do not copy paste the UI. Use pastebin to store these logs!

+## Issues
+Issues are intended for reporting bugs and weird behaviour or suggesting improvements to CouchPotatoServer.
+Before you submit an issue, please go through the following checklist:
+ * Search through existing issues (*including closed issues!*) first: you might be able to get your answer there.
+ * Double check your issue manually, because it could be an external issue. 
+ * Post logs with your issue: Without seeing what is going on, the developers can't reproduce the error.
+ * Check the logs yourself before submitting them. Obvious errors like permission or HTTP errors are often not related to CouchPotato.
+ * What movie and quality are you searching for?
+ * What are your settings for the specific problem?
+ * What providers are you using? (While your logs include these, scanning through hundreds of lines of logs isn't our hobby)
+ * Post the logs from the *config* directory, please do not copy paste the UI. Use pastebin to store these logs!
  * Give a short step by step of how to reproduce the error.
- * What hardware / OS are you using and what are the limits? NAS can be slow and maybe have a different python installed then when you use CP on OSX or Windows for example.
- * I will mark issues with the "can't reproduce" tag. Don't go asking "why closed" if it clearly says the issue in the tag ;)
- * If you're running on a NAS (QNAP, Austor etc..) with pre-made packages, make sure these are setup to use our source repo (RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer) and nothing else!!
+ * What hardware / OS are you using and what are its limitations? For example: NAS can be slow and maybe have a different version of python installed then when you use CP on OSX or Windows.
+ * Your issue might be marked with the "can't reproduce" tag. Don't ask why your issue was closed if it says so in the tag.
+ * If you're running on a NAS (QNAP, Austor etc..) with pre-made packages, make sure these are set up to use our source repository (RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer) and nothing else!!

+The more relevant information you can provide, the more likely it is the issue will be resolved rather than closed.
