Be sure that @command{make doc} runs successfully before submitting a

If the snippet is tagged with @qq{docs}, check to see if it
matches our guidelines for @ref{LilyPond formatting}.
+Also, snippets tagged with @qq{docs} should not be explaining
+(replicating) existing material in the docs. They should not
+refer to the docs; the docs should refer to them.

If the snippet uses scheme, check that everything looks good and
there are no security risks.
