Contributing guidelines are a huge asset! They help people interested in submitting pull requests figure out what they need to do without interrupting you, and if someone submits a PR that doesn't fulfill your requirements (code standards, tests, documentation) you can just point them there. GitHub recommends a CONTRIBUTING.md in your repo root which seems like a sensible standard.
