Surface clear submission guidelines in advance #751

Description

@supernovia

Patterns reviewers have complained that they're getting poor-quality submissions, but it's currently difficult to find expected quality standards until after one designs a pattern and clicks submit.

Current flow:

  • They're invited to create a pattern
  • On submit they're asked to check the guidelines
  • Clicking that asks if they want to leave the site and lose their work :/

It would be kinder to set standards in advance, maybe a modal when they open the new pattern editor, or at least brief guides and a link to more info.

Here's one page with some vague rules. It's a start:

Or we could point to the patterns submission pathway:
