How to contribute small changes

GitHub forking and pull requests

To suggest a specific small change to a page, the easiest method is to create a pull request that includes the change.

  1. Go to the website’s GitHub repository.

  2. Make sure you are in the master branch.

  3. Fork the repository.

  4. In your fork, commit your change. You can do this by directly editing a page, or by creating a local clone and pushing your commits to the fork.

  5. Create a new pull request. The maintainers of the repository will review your pull request.

Creating a new issue

You can also create new issues on the GitHub repository to suggest changes, as well. In your issue, please be specific about where you would like to see a change. If one of our maintainers has bandwidth, we can evaluate the issue and potentially make a change. Otherwise, we may ask you to potentially make a pull request with the change.
