There was a problem hiding this comment. Converted to bullet points instead of checkboxes and added a final checkbox for contributors to acknowledge the section. Do we feel okay about this? There was a problem hiding this comment. These are all good changes! I think we need a followup after opening a PR. Some suggestions after opening a PR (could be weighed by a larger group)

What's the reasoning behind using checkboxes for reproduction/verification steps?

Requiring slightly more engagement on the Author's part to confirm they did, in fact, verify those things since all of them should apply to every PR opened. (This differs from the consideration bullets above, where some did not always apply, which was cause for potential confusion.) Any concerns about the checks, or were you thinking it would be best to aim for consistency?
Related tangent:
I'm not sure I like the checklist -> bulleted change above either. I think it will encourage more automatic skimming. The potential confusion mentioned above could be solved by adding a line like "Please check only those that apply." before the consideration checklist.

Gotcha! I always looked at this more as a spot to put step-by-step instructions for reviewers to follow when verifying PR changes, but I see plenty of value in emphasizing that authors should also be doing their part to self-review and test their PRs too.
Edit: Also totally hear you about the checkbox/bullet change. I like the idea of saving ourselves some clicks, but if we think it might come at the cost of having devs overlook important points that might bite us later then I could understand going back to the way it was.

Oh shoot, I misread this comment and thought it was referring to the checks in the section below where Connie commented. That's my bad.
But the answer is somewhat similar! In retro, we talked about liking when Authors provide checklists for their reviewers - it's easier to review, so we want to encourage that! In that same vein, Authors should definitely also be confirming their own changes.

I'm going to merge this change and we'll give the bullets a try. Will be keeping an eye out for whether the single checkbox works in our favor and raise the issue if we should revert!
