Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

Are you here to participate in a specific proposal? Click on the proposal tag (with the dark outline) to see only posts about that proposal and not all of the others that are in progress. Tags are at the bottom of each post.

I've added a [template](https://proposals.codidact.com/help/proposal-template) to the help, linked from both the "how to propose a community" help topic and the posting guidance when you start a proposal post.  We don't yet have a way to pre-populate the editor (like GitHub does), so it's still a manual process, but I hope "follow link, select the stuff in the code block, copy, start proposal post, paste" is easier than copying from other proposals.

Please let us know how this template is working and what adjustments would make it easier to use.
