Thanks for wanting to help make reddit better!
|
|
|
|
Before you submit an issue or pull request, please keep in mind a couple of
|
|
considerations:
|
|
|
|
1. **Don't use GitHub issues for feature requests**.
|
|
If you have a feature request, please submit it to
|
|
[/r/ideasfortheadmins](http://www.reddit.com/r/ideasfortheadmins) instead.
|
|
Please note that while we do subscribe to /r/ideasfortheadmins, the presence
|
|
of a response or lack thereof has no indication as to whether the idea will
|
|
actually get implemented.
|
|
|
|
2. **Don't submit unconfirmed bugs**.
|
|
Please make sure your bug is an actual bug before reporting it.
|
|
Unfortunately, things will sometimes break on the operations side of the site
|
|
(e.g. a database slowing down, or a server being unavailable). These issues may
|
|
look like a bug, but they are not. If you're not sure, make a post in
|
|
[/r/bugs](http://www.reddit.com/r/bugs).
|
|
|
|
3. **DO NOT PUBLICLY REPORT SECURITY BUGS**.
|
|
If you have found a bug that can in some way compromise the security of the
|
|
site or its users, please exercise [responsible
|
|
disclosure](http://www.reddit.com/wiki/whitehat) and e-mail
|
|
security@reddit.com. We will respond to you as soon as possible. Please note
|
|
that e-mails which do not pertain to security vulnerabilities in reddit's code
|
|
will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
4. Please adhere to our [coding
|
|
standards](https://github.com/reddit/reddit/wiki#change-reddit).
|
|
|
|
5. Please don't submit PRs that are just whitespace, style or readability
|
|
changes. We prefer to make those changes when we're working with the code
|
|
in that area anyway.
|
|
|
|
6. Please don't submit minor tweaks to text on the site, such as changes to
|
|
punctuation, spacing or wording. Any string changes will cause all previous
|
|
translations of that string to other languages to be invalidated, so we try
|
|
to only change strings when the difference is significant.
|
|
|
|
After you submit your issue or request, we'll take a look and it and get back
|
|
to you in a few days. If you have any questions, feel free to ask us! We're
|
|
readily available:
