Description

@fedorov

I feel like there are more and more extensions that are submitted, and this is very exciting, but I find it difficult to quickly review what the given extension is about based on the information provided in the PR.

It is good we have a checklist, but what would be nice to have in addition to the checklist is 1) lay-person description of what the extension is and what it does; 2) link to the repository with the extension; 3) link to a paper related to the extension (if such paper available).

I understand that we have the repo link in the s4ext in the extension, but it's an extra step to look it up (and not everyone looking at the extension will know where to look it up), and it is not hyperlinked.

I think the proposed changes should not make the submission more burdensome, but will make those PRs more informative, and ultimately may raise the visibility of the proposed functionality.
