Wiki Contributors

If you want to contribute to this wiki, there are essentially two possibilities:

• One is reserved to members of the core development team, who are also members of the indico/indico project. They can click on the Edit button of the wiki pages and use the integrated editor of GitHub.

• The more common case is probably that you are a casual contributor. You will have to edit a copy of the indico/indico.wiki git repository, then create an issue on indico/indico to request a git pull of your edits. Below are some more detailed and concrete instructions that allow you to also use the integrated editor of GitHub, which gives you immediate feedback to your edits. The "preview" function tab almost makes it a WYSIWYG editor.

Step by step

1. If you want to use the GitHub editor, you need a GitHub account. Register with GitHub in order to get one.

2. Then fork the indico/indico repository into your own account <user_account>/indico.

3. Generate a wiki there. Typically you will get an error that the wiki home page already exists. (I guess that is, because it was somehow cloned with your fork, but not yet published.) Your wiki should now appear as it was in the original repository at the time of forking.

4. Edit your wiki. Verify your edits.

5. File a new ticket to request that we pull your code (unfortunately, GitHub does not support pull requests on wikis). Do not forget to indicate precisely the repository where you made the changes to the wiki. Make sure it is visible to everyone.

Expert mode

Besides the method described above, you can of course git clone, edit, git commit and request a pull from your local or any other repository clone, in a way equivalent to the procedure above.
