# Contribute

pap.md is only as good as its sources. If you spot something wrong, find coverage we missed, or see the PAP spec go live before we do, tell us on GitHub. Every accepted change gets logged on the [status page](/status).

The site's code isn't public, but the content conversation is. It all happens in[github.com/fabricioctelles/pap.md](https://github.com/fabricioctelles/pap.md), which holds issue templates and plain Markdown copies of the fact pages (timeline, partners, FAQ, press, spec status) that you can edit in a pull request.

## Report a correction

Found a wrong date, a misattributed quote or a claim with no source? That's the most useful thing you can send.

- Open a [correction issue](https://github.com/fabricioctelles/pap.md/issues/new?template=correction.yml).
- Title it `[Correction] Page: what's wrong`, for example `[Correction] Partners: NiCE quote`.
- Include the page URL, the text as it stands, what it should say, and a link to the source that proves it.

No source, no change. That rule applies to us too.

## Add a source or news

New partner, new interview, a company saying it will or won't support PAP. Open a[source issue](https://github.com/fabricioctelles/pap.md/issues/new?template=new-source.yml) titled `[Source] Outlet: headline`with the link, the publish date and one line on what it adds. Rewrites of Sierra's post don't make the cut; first-hand statements and real analysis do.

## Spotted the spec?

The v0.1 specification is the thing everyone's waiting for. If you see it published, open a[spec alert](https://github.com/fabricioctelles/pap.md/issues/new?template=spec-watch.yml) titled `[Spec] v0.1 published`with the link. We'll verify it, update the tracker and start the annotated read.

## Suggest a page or comparison

Want PAP compared with another protocol, or a question answered in the FAQ? Open a[content idea](https://github.com/fabricioctelles/pap.md/issues/new?template=content-idea.yml) titled `[Idea] …` and say who the page would help.

## Edit the content directly

Comfortable with pull requests? Go straight to the files.

- Fork [fabricioctelles/pap.md](https://github.com/fabricioctelles/pap.md).
- Edit the relevant file in `content/`. Keep tables as tables, and put the source link next to anything you add.
- Open a pull request. The template asks for your sources and whether you're affiliated with anyone involved in PAP.

We port accepted changes into the site by hand, so your PR may be closed with a link to the commit on pap.md rather than merged as is.

## What gets accepted

- **Sourced facts.** Link a primary source when there is one: Sierra, Meta, a partner's own post, the spec.
- **No guesses.** No endpoints, scope names, licenses or dates that haven't been published.
- **Opinions labelled.** Analysis is welcome when it says it's analysis.
- **No promotion.** Product pitches, affiliate links and "we support PAP" claims without a public statement get closed.
- **Disclose ties.** If you work for Sierra, Meta, a partner or a competing protocol, say so. It doesn't disqualify you; hiding it does.

## How review works

A maintainer reads every issue and pull request, checks the source and replies, usually within a few days. Accepted changes go live on the site, get a line in the[changelog](/status) and the [RSS feed](/updates.xml), and we're happy to credit you there by your GitHub handle if you'd like.
