For typos, deadlinks, missing images, and other minor matters, please file an issue against this repository.
Additions and significant changes should be created in a branch and submitted as a pull request. Please take the following into consideration when writing documentation:
- This is documentation for ordinary users, not developers. Please use clear, jargon-free language.
- Explain every possible step, even the ones which seem obvious. It is better for users to skip a step they've already completed than be confused by a leap they can't follow. Do not assume any prior knowledge of technology on the part of the user for this documentation.
- Break longer tasks up into short paragraphs or lists.
- Use illustrative images when needed, especially to indicate which button or link users should engage with.
Section headings should start with H2 (##) and go down to H4.
Links should be composed as relative to the current file.
Images for a file go into the doc_files directory; images for plugin-related pages go into the directory doc_files/plugin_images. Begin filenames with the page to which the file is attached, for example textanalysis_freq.png is an image for the TextAnalysis plugin.
