## Contribution Guidelines
|
||||
**Thank you for your interest in contributing to the Archipelago website!**
|
||||
Much of the content on the website is generated automatically, but there are some things
|
||||
that need a personal touch. For those things, we rely on contributions from both the core
|
||||
team and the community. The current primary maintainer of the website is Farrak Kilhn.
|
||||
He may be found on Discord as `Farrak Kilhn#0418`, or on GitHub as `LegendaryLinux`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Small Changes
|
||||
Pull requests for small changes to the website are almost always accepted. These include things
|
||||
like spelling and grammar corrections, bugfixes, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
### Content Additions
|
||||
Once you develop a new feature or add new content the website, make a pull request. It will
|
||||
be reviewed by the community and there will probably be some discussion around it. Depending
|
||||
on the size of the feature, and if new styles are required, there may be an additional step
|
||||
before the PR is accepted wherein Farrak works with the designer to implement styles.
|
||||
|
||||
### Style Changes
|
||||
While content and feature changes to the website are commonly accepted, style changes are not.
|
||||
A professional designer has designed the assets, colors, themes, etc. for the website. In an
|
||||
effort to maintain a consistent look and feel, style changes are largely not accepted. Please
|
||||
note this applies to code which changes the look and feel of the site, not to small tweaks to
|
||||
CSS for your custom page.
|
||||
|
||||
### Site Themes
|
||||
There are several themes available for game pages. It is possible to request a new theme in
|
||||
the `#art-and-design` channel on Discord. Because themes are created by the designer, they
|
||||
are not free, and take some time to create. Farrak works closely with the designer to implement
|
||||
these themes, and pays for the assets out of pocket. Therefore, only a couple themes per year
|
||||
are added. If a proposed theme seems like a cool idea and the community likes it, there is a
|
||||
good chance it will become a reality.
