Contributing

You contribute to the BDFD wiki by making a pull request.

Make sure to follow the 'Proper Wiki Structure' when contributing.

Common Issue

• My pull request got merged but isn't shown on the wiki page. Why?
  • The markdown files contributed have deployed by a developer (which happens every few weeks).

Terms and Guidelines

• You may not be credited for the making of wiki. However, if applicable the Developers reserve the right to give perks/accreditation to users for contributing.
• The name of files must be in the format of fileName.md. No spaces or special characters (e.g $).
• Do not make duplicates or useless pull requests.
• Do not make troll or NSFW pull requests.
• Fact-check/verify information included in the pull request.

Proper Wiki Structure

Grammar

• Don't use gendered pronouns (e.g. she/her/hers/he/him/his). Instead use: They, them, their.

- He is cool.
+ They are cool.

• Use "we" instead of "I" when referring to yourself.

- If you use the `$eval` function, I strongly recommend you also use `$onlyForIDs`.
+ If you use the `$eval` function, we strongly recommend you also use `$onlyForIDs`.

• "You"/"your" instead of "we"/"our"

- We can get our bot's ID using `$botID`.
+ You can get your bot's ID using `$botID`.

• Avoid using these phrases:

- dumb, weird, stupid, ugly, uneeded, useless, bad, deadly, noob, trash, suck, I don't know, I don't care, idiot
