Answering (my) issue #432.
This is a sample contributing.md file, slightly modified to fit your project, cited within, found here: https://gist.github.com/PurpleBooth/b24679402957c63ec426.
Even if this is not the specific set of standards you choose to maintain, some kind of guide for contributors is always helpful.
