After #100 the new issue templates are not showing. Two likely reasons:

  • content below front matter is commented out, so template is "empty"
  • content for name contains a colon on each entry

GitHub help doc: https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/building-a-strong-community/configuring-issue-templates-for-your-repository

Could consider a stale issue template workflow like this one as well, but would need community input / possibly a separate issue to track.

Per https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/building-a-strong-community/about-issue-and-pull-request-templates#issue-templates:

To be included in the community profile checklist, issue templates must be located in the .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE folder and contain valid name: and about: YAML front matter.

I think it's the name syntax, try putting these in quotes, e.g.,

name: Agenda: Add Action Item

would become

name: "Agenda: Add Action Item"

Quotes are the solution:
