most repos have the autolink setting enabled, so a full example jira URL isn’t necessary since they’ll just use something like “BE-1234” which will automatically link to jira

https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/managing-repository-settings/configuring-autolinks-to-reference-external-resources#about-autolinks

id say putting the header for the link is good, but an example placeholder will probably cause more friction than help, and any friction is just an annoyance that will be circumvented by other means

LMAO thank you @spencerkordecki - i've been meaning to shoot you a text! with this review, you did 3 things

  1. prompted me to make this repo private
  2. assured us that we need to reinstall our 7 year old Jira-GH integration
  3. got a text from me

and also for reference to your PR body, the “rollout” will take place once this is merged. unless the repos override their templates, any new PR created for that repo will use the changes you make here in this directory
