     **IMPORTANT**: PRs without the template will be CLOSED
     
+    Due to the high number of pull requests, it may take some time before your code will be reviewed.
+    It is recommended for new contributors to stick to smaller pull requests, to familiarize themselves with the codebase.
+    Large PRs take longer to be reviewed and merged.
+
+    Please avoid force-pushing once a review has started, as it makes reviewing more difficult.
