 ### 2. Creating a submission
 
-- Make an individual pull request for each suggestion.
+Make an individual pull request for each suggestion:
+- **Do not edit README directly!**
+- Add the idea to the corresponding file in [`data`](./data) and make sure it matches the format.
+
+Style tips:
 - New categories, or improvements to the existing categorization are welcome.
 - Keep descriptions short and simple, but descriptive.
 - Don't mention `IPFS` in the description as it's implied.
 - Start the description with a capital and end with a full stop/period.
 - Check your spelling and grammar.
-- Add the idea to the corresponding file in [`data`](./data) and make sure it matches the format.
 - You can add a picture to describe your idea in [`./src/static/images`](./src/static/images).
 
 ### 3. Submitting it through a PR
 
-- Make sure to run `npm ci && npm run build:readme` before submitting the Pull Request.
 - The pull request should have a useful title and include a link to the package and why it should be included.
 - Submit products when they are useable, or at a state which has something to show which is awesome in itself. This cuts down on half-finished implementations.
 
 Thank you for your suggestions!
