doc: contributing: add an 'other guidelines' section for soft guidelines (#500)
* doc: contributing: add an 'other guidelines' section for soft guidelines - these guidelines are only relevant for a small fraction of additions but would significantly increase the number of requirements in the pull request template, so add them in a separate document - move the guideline about providing a list of differences for forks to this document - ref. https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted-data/issues/33#issuecomment-1886405382 --------- Co-authored-by: Rabenherz112 <rabenherz@theravenhub.com>

### Other guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to guidelines listed in the [Pull Request template](.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md), these general rules help keep the list consistent:
|
||||
- Please avoid redundant terms in project descriptions, such as _open-source_, _free_, _self-hosted_... as their presence on awesome-selfhosted already implies this.
|
||||
- Prefer shorter forms for descriptions - for example, `Minimalist text adventure game` would be preferred to `A minimalist text adventure game` or `$PROJECT is a minimalist text adventure game`).
|
||||
- If the the project has no documentation in English, please add `(documentation in $LANGUAGE)` at the end of the description.
|
||||
- If the project is presented as an alternative to another service or application, please mention it as `(alternative to $PRODUCT1, $PRODUCT2)` at the end of the description.
|
||||
- If you are adding software forked from another active project, please provide/link to a clear list of differences between both.
|
||||
- If the project is forked from another project, please add `(fork of $PROJECT)` at the end of the description.
|
||||
- If the project distributes a single static binary, please add the programming language in which it is written.
