+### Please use the correct issue tracker
+
+If your problem relates to a Syncthing wrapper or [sub-project](https://github.com/syncthing) such as [Syncthing for Android](https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-android/issues), [SyncTrayzor](https://github.com/canton7/synctrayzor) or the [documentation](https://github.com/syncthing/docs/issues), please use their respective issue trackers.
+
+### Does your log mention database corruption?
+
+If your Syncthing log reports panics because of database corruption it is most likely a fault with your system's storage or memory. Affected log entries will contain lines starting with `panic: leveldb`. You will need to delete the index database to clear this, by running `syncthing -reset-database`.
