### New pkgcheck check for undocumented return values

Our [pkgcheck checks](https://docs.ropensci.org/pkgcheck) now include an additional check that all functions have documented return values.
This check is [run on all new CRAN submissions](https://github.com/DavisVaughan/extrachecks), yet is not currently implemented on any other standard check systems (including devtools::check and goodpractice).
Checking your packages with pkgcheck will now catch any functions which do not document return values, like in [the report on this recent submission](https://github.com/ropensci/software-review/issues/554#issuecomment-1224053977).
All current checks are also listed in [a new vignette](https://docs.ropensci.org/pkgcheck/articles/list-checks.html).
