Yes, if your PR (pull request) is merged and you want to gain additional points by working on a higher-point issue, you can create a new issue for it. Make sure to:

1 Clearly describe the new feature, improvement, or bug fix you plan to address.
2 Choose a relevant tag that corresponds to the higher points you're targeting (if such tags are used in your project for categorizing points).
3 Reference any relevant context, like the merged PR, so maintainers understand why you're proposing this new issue.

Yes, you can make pull requests (PRs) as part of your contributions, but you can not ask for "level up" tags directly in the PR. This would come across as unprofessional and might not align with open-source etiquette. However, you can make meaningful contributions that naturally lead to achieving GitHub badges, such as the Pull Shark badge, through merged PRs.

Yes, your merged pull request (PR) is a great step toward earning recognition for your contributions. However, directly asking for a "level up" tag or points in the PR might be seen as unprofessional and is not encouraged in open-source projects. Instead, focus on making impactful contributions that add value to the project. By consistently creating meaningful PRs, you'll naturally work your way toward earning GitHub badges like the Pull Shark badge and other community acknowledgments. Let your contributions speak for themselves!

Yes,Create a new issue explaining your contribution and why you believe it merits a higher points tag. Provide a link to your merged PR and detail the value it adds to the project.

Yes, you can create an issue to request a higher points tag for your contribution, but it depends on the specific repository's guidelines and point system.
just some of the things to keep in mind Some repositories or programs (Hacktoberfest) may have automated systems for assigning points or tags.
If this is part of a competitive or community-based contribution platform, check whether they allow requesting points adjustments
Avoid creating multiple issues for the same request

[KaushalBdrKunwar]

Yes, you can create an issue requesting a higher points tag if the project you're contributing to follows a point-based contribution system (like Hacktoberfest or some open-source repositories with a reward system).

[HarishM-git]

You generally can’t create an issue just to request a higher points tag, as GitHub issues are usually intended for tracking bugs, features, or improvements. However, if you're contributing regularly and making meaningful changes, you could create an issue asking for a recognition tag or higher points, explaining your contributions.

It's best to discuss this with the repository maintainers or follow any guidelines provided by the project for gaining tags or recognition. Some repositories have specific criteria for awarding tags like "contributor" or "points."

[AmanShukla18]

Yes, you can make pull requests requesting "level up" tags, but do so respectfully and constructively. Contribute meaningful improvements fix bugs, add features, or enhance documentation. In your PR description, briefly state your contribution, express interest in leveling up, and politely ask maintainers to consider tagging it. Avoid spammy requests. Quality contributions and consistent engagement are the best way to earn level up recognition in open-source communities.

Yes, you can create an issue after your PR is merged to get it labeled with a higher points tag, but here's the right way to do it:

Best Practice:
Create a new issue referencing the merged PR.

Explain clearly why the PR deserves more points (e.g., it was complex, fixed a critical bug, added a major feature, etc.).

Ask maintainers politely to consider tagging the issue with a higher "difficulty" or "points" label (like level:3 or points:50, depending on the project's system).

[zayaaan-al]

If your pull request (PR) has been merged and you want to get a higher points tag (like in Hacktoberfest or similar contribution programs), you generally do not need to create a separate issue—unless the maintainers have asked contributors to do so.

However, if you're contributing to a repository where points, tags, or labels like level, good first issue, hacktoberfest-accepted, etc. matter, you can politely ask the maintainers to add or update the label by commenting on the merged PR itself, rather than creating a new issue.
