+- `D-*` Audit tags denoting auditing requirements on the PR.
 
 *Process:*
 
 . Please tag each PR with exactly one `A`, `B`, `C` and `D` label at the minimum.
-. Once a PR is ready for review please add the https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3AA0-pleasereview[`A0-pleasereview`] label. Generally PRs should sit with this label for 48 hours in order to garner feedback. It may be merged before if all relevant parties had a look at it.
-. If the first review is not an approval, swap `A0-pleasereview` to any label `[A3, A7]` to indicate that the PR has received some feedback, but needs further work. For example. https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/labels/A3-inprogress[`A3-inprogress`] is a general indicator that the PR is work in progress and https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/labels/A4-gotissues[`A4-gotissues`] means that it has significant problems that need fixing. Once the work is done, change the label back to `A0-pleasereview`. You might end up swapping a few times back and forth to climb up the A label group. Once a PR is https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/labels/A8-mergeoncegreen[`A8-mergeoncegreen`], it is ready to merge.
-. PRs must be tagged with their release notes requirements via the `B1-B9` labels.
-. PRs must be tagged with their release importance via the `C1-C9` labels.
+. Once a PR is ready for review please add the https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3AA0-please_review+[`A0-please_review`] label. Generally PRs should sit with this label for 48 hours in order to garner feedback. It may be merged before if all relevant parties had a look at it.
+. If the first review is not an approval, swap `A0-please_review` to any label `[A3, A5]` to indicate that the PR has received some feedback, but needs further work. For example. https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/labels/A3-in_progress[`A3-in_progress`] is a general indicator that the PR is work in progress.
+. PRs must be tagged with their release notes requirements via the `B*` labels. If a PR should be mentioned in the release notes, use `B1` and add either: `T0-node`, `T1-runtime`or `T2-API` - this defines in which section of the release notes the PR will be shown.
+. PRs must be tagged with their release importance via the `C1-C7` labels.

     Note: The merge-bot currently doesn't work with forks on org accounts, only individual accounts.
 	(Hint: it's recommended to use `bot merge` to merge all substrate PRs, not just ones with a polkadot companion.)
 
-If your PR is reviewed well, but a Polkadot PR is missing, signal it with https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/labels/A7-needspolkadotpr[`A7-needspolkadotpr`] to prevent it from getting automatically merged.

 As there might be multiple pending PRs that might conflict with one another, a) you should not merge the substrate PR until the Polkadot PR has also been reviewed and b) both should be merged pretty quickly after another to not block others.
 
 == Helping out
 
-We use https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/labels[labels] to manage PRs and issues and communicate state of a PR. Please familiarize yourself with them. Furthermore we are organizing issues in https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/milestones[milestones]. Best way to get started is to a pick a ticket from the current milestone tagged https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3AQ2-easy[`easy`] or https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3AQ3-medium[`medium`] and get going or https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3AX1-mentor[`mentor`] and get in contact with the mentor offering their support on that larger task.
