To enhance the repository visibility:

Repository Details

Edit About box setting (repository details):

GitHub topics are a powerful feature, they don't just simplifying find repositories on GitHub: by adding PML keywords to the topics you're actually promoting PML's visibility on GitHub, and once a keyword reaches a certain numbers of repository that are using it you automatically obtain visibility on various GitHub services and sub-pages.

Media Preview Card

In Settings » Options: "Social preview" you can add a social media preview card for the PML repository, which will be showed whenever the repository is linked in websites, blogs and forums that support media cards. You'll also find a link to a graphic template there, to build your card with.

You can use the SocialSharePreview.com or Twitter Card Validator services to check how your card looks like. E.g., here's the link to the media preview card of Sublime-PML; and here's a screenshot from Twitter:

Sublime-PML-social-card-preview

If you need any help with the graphics, just buzz me via PM. I work a lot of graphics.

Needless to say, the same tips apply to any other repository and to the pxml-lang as well.
