Describe the bug

A clear and concise description of what the bug is. Plain-text snippets preferred but screenshots welcome.

The scan fails to find things like CONTRIBUTING.md for certain repositories, even when they appear in a GitHub organization's .github repository.

What did you expect?

A clear and concise description of what you expect to happen

I expected at least a yellow or partial pass for the presence of a centralized CONTRIBUTING.md within a .github folder in an organization. I don't think a full green pass should be given due to the fact that not having a CONTRIBUTING.md inside a README but rather on a .github repository means that the code is less portable outside of GitHub.

Reproducible steps

How would we reproduce this bug? Please walk us through it step by step. Plain-text snippets preferred but screenshots welcome.

1. Use the SLIM leaderboard to scan for https://github.com/NASA-PDS/validate
2. Notice it gives a failure for the CONTRIBUTING.md check
3. Notice the repository still points to a valid, centralized CONTRIBUTING.md when a new issue ticket is created (under the main text box block)
