Perhaps something like
 * If a script or stylesheet is actively maintained, use its talk page to suggest new features/major changes. Always ask the author(s) before making major changes yourself. (This doesn't apply to fixing minor bugs and adding translations.)

It has always seemed to me that the unwritten policy on Dev Wiki was to not edit other people's scripts without discussion (except for minor fixes/translations). I think this one is especially worth noting because it's slightly different than the "anyone can edit (anything)" policy on most wikis.

If someone suggests a script on the suggestions board, should that person be credited for the original idea in the doc infobox? I've seen it both ways.

I think it could also be useful to include naming guidelines (not necessarily rules) and what constitutes code that should be added as its own page versus something that should be included in the CSS or JS cookbooks.
