- Keep descriptions short and simple, but descriptive.
- The description should not be marketing taglines.

- The pull request should have a useful title.
- New categories or improvements to the existing categorization are welcome, but should be done in a separate pull request.

Thank you for your suggestion!

### Updating your PR
