Please review it!

Reviewed the README.md (latest MR! by Manoj Raj.R #6 ) , The Markdown looks good to me adhering to Drupal markdown practices.

Changing status to Reviewed and Tested by Community.

Thanks, looks good! For perfection and consistency, please also use un-indented dashes in the list "Current maintainers".

Now:
* Peter Vanhee [...]

Update to:
- Peter Vanhee [...]

Let me update it.

Thanks! I now see this, which could be formatted into a link:

Now:
Token [http://drupal.org/project/token]

Should be:
[Token](https://drupal.org/project/token)

@ressa
Worked on formatted into a link.

Thanks, but the link is http://drupal.org/project/token, it should be https://drupal.org/project/token

Thanks @Manoj Raj.R, it looks good now.

The readme template linked in the issue summary requires two lines prior to a heading.

The only added section was an optional one ("Maintainers"). I don't mind if this issue includes adding sections to the readme but if it does, please include all of the required sections. Please leave the maintainers section off the readme, I do not wish us to have to make code updates to the readme when new maintainers are added to the project, this information is freely available on drupal.org.

Updated as required of Readme format.

please review.

Thanks everyone for the contribution, this has been merged.

Thanks @darvanen. Maybe the default branch on Gitlab can be updated to 2.x, or the 2.x README.md pushed to 1.x?

• https://git.drupalcode.org/project/token_filter
• https://git.drupalcode.org/project/token_filter/-/tree/2.x

Good plan @ressa, I'll do that once I've got higher maintainer permissions :)

#3334330: Request for higher maintainer permissions for @darvanen on Token Filter module

Awesome! I hope @pvhee or the core team can give you the Maintainer role. Also, perhaps the "Documentation for Token Filter 8.x" link under "Resources" on the project page could lose the "8.x" to be just "Documentation for Token Filter" after the new versioning?
