Proposed lineage name

Wouldn't it be useful to require a precise GISAID query for the proposed lineage? I recently started adding it to my proposals, following Fede Gueli's proposals and I think it can be extremely useful to others.

Anyway i have explicited the rules of the secondary repo to be sure they will be respected : sars-cov-2-variants/lineage-proposals#1833

In order to prevent future off-topic comments, I have locked conversation on this issue so that only those with write access to this repo can add comments.

This is a pinned topic to outline the format for proposing lineages. It is not intended to have comments or conversation attached to it.
