# Which Problems Are Solved
The org is migrating from label-based issue classification to GitHub
Issue Types. Issue templates that hardcode `labels:` silently re-add
those labels every time an issue is opened, which blocks the label
cleanup. The `docs` label is also being renamed to `area/docs`, and a
couple of Dependabot labels are being aligned with the new naming
scheme.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Issue templates (these already declare a `type:`, so the deprecated
label is simply removed rather than duplicating the type):
- `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/BUG_REPORT.yaml` — removed `labels: ["bug"]`
(keeps existing `type: Bug`)
- `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/enhancement.yaml` — removed `labels:
["enhancement"]` (keeps existing `type: enhancement`)
- `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/docs.yaml` — `labels: ["docs"]` → `labels:
["area/docs"]`
# Additional Changes
`.github/dependabot.yml` — renamed deprecated label strings in the
`labels:` blocks (the `package-ecosystem` identifiers are left
unchanged):
- `"npm"` → `"javascript"`
- `"gomod"` → `"go"`
- `"documentation"` → `"area/docs"`
# Additional Context
Part of the org-wide migration from label-based issue classification to
GitHub Issue Types.

# Which Problems Are Solved
Github introduced the new issue types, which we want to add to our
issues. Starting point is to change the templates, so we can add the
right types.
