 The Contribution Checklist starts specific then goes more general as it
 continues: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing
 /writing-code/submitting-patches/#contribution-checklist . This means that
 as a new contributor coming in on a docs issue, I didn't realize there was
 an "All tickets" section after "All Code Contributions" until I had gotten
 all the way to submitting a PR that was autoclosed for not meeting
 requirements that hadn't been onscreen when I carefully read the
 Documentation section.

 Instead, I would expect that things everyone needs to know would come
 first, followed by more specific things that only some people need, so
 readers can safely drop out once they've gotten specific advice on their
 particular issue type. In this case, I propose reordering the sections as
 follows:
 1.  All tickets
 2. All code changes
 3. Documentation
 4. Bugs
 5. New features
 6. Deprecating a feature
