+<h3>Have Questions?</h3>
+
+<h4>StackOverflow</h4>
+
+For usage questions and help (e.g. how to use this Spark API), it is recommended you use the 
+StackOverflow tag <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/apache-spark">`apache-spark`</a> 
+as it is an active forum for Spark users' questions and answers.
+
+Some quick tips when using StackOverflow:
+
+- Prior to asking submitting questions, please:
+  - Search StackOverflow's 
+  <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/apache-spark">`apache-spark`</a> tag to see if 
+  your question has already been answered
+  - Search the nabble archive for
+  <a href="http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/">users@spark.apache.org</a> 
+- Please follow the StackOverflow <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask">code of conduct</a>  
+- Always use the `apache-spark` tag when asking questions
+- Please also use a secondary tag to specify components so subject matter experts can more easily find them.
+ Examples include: `pyspark`, `spark-dataframe`, `spark-streaming`, `spark-r`, `spark-mllib`, 
+  `spark-ml`, `spark-graphx`, `spark-graphframes`, `spark-tensorframes`, etc. 
+- Please do not cross-post between StackOverflow and the mailing lists
+- No jobs, sales, or solicitation is permitted on StackOverflow
