[Hacktoberfest] Call for contributions!

Do you have some knowledge about research software? We are looking for meaningful contributions to software annotation for Hacktoberfest! For a contribution to be approved for Hacktoberfest you must:

How do I contribute?

Install the Research Software Encyclopedia software with pip

pip install rse

Follow the annotation tutorial on your local machine to complete 25 annotations for software libraries (both criteria and taxonomy). You can then commit to your forked branch, push, and open a pull request for review.

Can I contribute more than once?

You are welcome to submit more than one pull request as long as the 25 are met.

Can I just contribute in the software interface?

You definitely can, but it won't count toward Hacktoberfest. While you can annotate in the web interface provided here, these annotations cannot count toward the PR because they are done on your behalf by a bot.

The maintainers of the RSEPedia have the right to assess the quality of your annotations and determine if they were done with good effort. Please do not submit spam, or otherwise low quality annotations. Thank you!

Install the Research Software Encyclopedia with pip, then follow the linked annotation tutorial on your local machine. Complete 25 software-library annotations covering both criteria and taxonomy, commit them to a forked branch, and open a pull request for maintainer review.
