@JasonEtco Thanks for the fix. I do wonder about removing the instructions though. Seems like there's a fair bit of friction without it. Users will have to follow the link, figure out the syntax, pick an emoji (do we care what they pick?) and then add the comment. They'll also need to remember to do that for each different type of contribution.

Is it possible to do one of

• automatically add the required comment
• keep something like the previous text but quote the bot command somehow so the allcontributors bot does not try to interpret it

[JasonEtco]

Thanks for that feedback @jeffmcaffer!

automatically add the required comment

We can make a best guess, but this gets a little nuanced when we want to tag the right kind of contribution (code, docs, content, design, etc). So automatically adding it would still require some manual effort, or some up front work to make that guessing smarter based on changed files.

keep something like the previous text but quote the bot command somehow so the allcontributors bot does not try to interpret it

That's what we tried to do, but it seems like the bot is too aggressive in its comment parsing 😅 any comment that mentioned the bot is parsed, and if it fails the bot comments anyway. If we were to write a comment without mentioning the bot, it wouldn't be a copy-pastable example. I'm interested in @janiceilene's thoughts here too - happy to keep experimenting with this!

I did a quick look at the project (https://github.com/all-contributors/all-contributors) and didn't see anything detailing how to include instructions in a PR (i.e., quoting). I wonder if they've encountered this scenario? (didn't see anything obvious in the issues).

Question, does GitHub have a way of quoting at mentions in its markup? Like if I want to say "mention me, @jeffmcaffer" in a comment without actually mentioning me, how would I do that?
