| =What Can I Do On MDN?= | | =What Can I Do On MDN?= |
| ==Edit existing content==
| | There are lots of things to work on, and it's easy to get started in 3 easy steps with the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/MDN/Getting_started "Getting Started"] guide. |
| *See an error or typo? You can fix it! Since MDN is a wiki, anyone can edit and add content.
| |
| *To get started, login (or create an account) and then just click <em>Edit</em> on the article you want to edit & start editing the content. Make sure to save your changes.
| |
| * For more information, see the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Project:Getting_started#The_basics Getting Started] Guide
| |
| | |
| ==Tag content for review or edits==
| |
| Not ready to edit the content yet? You also can use tags to flag problems.
| |
| *Here are some of the tags we use, and their meanings:
| |
| **NeedsMarkupWork: the formatting is not standard or not consistent with other pages.
| |
| **NeedsExample: needs one or more illustrative code examples of the item documented.
| |
| **NeedsContent: the item is incomplete and needs to be filled out.
| |
| **NeedsJSVersion: needs information about the version of JavaScript and EcmaScript this item first appears in.
| |
| **NeedsBrowserCompatibility: needs a browser compatibility table or needs the table filled out.
| |
| **MakeBrowserAgnostic: the article is written with a focus on Gecko, when it is actually about a standard function or feature, which should be rewritten to be generic.
| |
| | |
| To add tags to content:
| |
| *Login to MDN.
| |
| *Click Edit to enter editing mode.
| |
| *Scroll to the bottom of the page.
| |
| *In the Tags box, type the tag that you want to add. Tags can contain spaces.
| |
| *Press Enter to accept the tag.
| |
| *Click Save Changes when you are done.
| |
| | |
| ==Write new content==
| |
| *You are encouraged to write new articles on whatever topics we currently cover in the wiki. New content can be as simple as a one page tip or as complex as a book-length programming guide or reference. The amount of new content you contribute is entirely up to you.
| |
| *Please review the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Project:Writer%27s_guide Writer's Guide] for more information on how to write on MDN.
| |
| *The [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Project:Documentation_Wishlist Documentation Wish List] provides some ideas of content we would love to see added to the MDN.
| |
| *Bugzilla bugs that require documentation are tagged with the dev-doc-needed keyword. Please review the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Project:Tracking_documentation_issues Tracking documentation issues] page to see how to use Bugzilla to find articles to write.
| |
| | |
