+## Python standards ##
 Python code should conform to [PEP 8][].
 
-Licensing
----------
-By contributing to the project, you agree to license your work under the same
-licenses as `cheat` itself. `cheat` is currently dual-licensed under the GPL3
-and MIT licenses, though that could change without notice in the future.
 
-`cheat`, however, will always remain free software (as in both "free as in
-freedom" and "free as in beer") and shall always be licensed accordingly.
+## Cheatsheet Format ##
+Please pattern your cheatsheets after the following:
+
+```sh
+# To extract an uncompressed archive:
+tar -xvf /path/to/foo.tar
+
+# To create an uncompressed archive:
+tar -cvf /path/to/foo.tar /path/to/foo/
+
+# To extract a .gz archive:
+tar -xzvf /path/to/foo.tgz
+```
+
+If you are submitting a cheatsheet that contains side-by-side columns of text,
+please align the columns using spaces rather than tabs.

 ### Enabling Syntax Highlighting ###
-`cheat` can apply syntax highlighting to your cheatsheets if so desired. To
-enable this feature, set a `CHEATCOLORS` environment variable:
+`cheat` can optionally apply syntax highlighting to your cheatsheets. To enable
+syntax highlighting, export a `CHEATCOLORS` environment variable:
 
 ```sh
 export CHEATCOLORS=true
 ```
 
+#### Specifying a Syntax Highlighter ####
+You may manually specify which syntax highlighter to use for each cheatsheet by
+wrapping the sheet's contents in a [Github-Flavored Markdown code-fence][gfm].
+
+Example:
+
+<pre>
+```sql
+-- to select a user by ID
+SELECT *
+FROM Users
+WHERE id = 100
+```
+</pre>
+
+If no syntax highlighter is specified, the `bash` highlighter will be used by
+default.
