Contributing to the DCVault wiki

DCVault is a community wiki, and it grows with the people who use it. Every page can be improved, and you do not need an account on this site to help.

Fix or improve a page​

Every page has an "Edit this page" link at the bottom. It opens the source file on GitHub, where you edit it and open a pull request. A maintainer reviews it and merges. Small fixes like a typo, a broken link, or a clearer sentence are always welcome and quick to do this way.

Suggest something bigger​

For a new page, a larger rewrite, or anything you want to discuss first, open an issue on GitHub or start a thread on the forum. That way we can agree on the shape before you put in the work.

Languages​

DCVault currently comes in English (the main language) and German, and new languages are welcome. English pages live in docs/, each translation under i18n/<locale>/.

To start a new language, open an issue or a forum thread first. A maintainer adds the locale to the config, then you can translate page by page: the files mirror docs/ under i18n/<locale>/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/. You do not have to translate everything at once.

If you work in English or German, contribute the language you are comfortable with and note what still needs updating. A maintainer will help.

Style in short​

  • Keep it simple and concrete. Short beats long.
  • Headings in sentence case.
  • Link to related pages instead of repeating them.
