Creating an inclusive and equitable environment for our documents is more important than any other aspect. Syntax errors can be corrected, but trust, once lost, is difficult to gain back. Contributing We welcome contributions from community members to this repo: • **Fixes**: When you notice an error, you can use the button at the bottom of each page to suggest a change. • **New documentation**: If you contributed code in dbt-core, we encourage you to also write the docs here! Please reach out in the dbt community if you need help finding a place for these docs. • **Major rewrites**: You can file an issue to propose ideas for a content area that requires attention. You can use components documented in the docusaurus library. Writing content The dbt Labs docs are written in Markdown and sometimes HTML. When writing content, refer to the style guide and content types to help you understand our writing standards and how we break down information in the product documentation. SME and editorial reviews All PRs that are submitted will be reviewed by the dbt Labs Docs team for editorial review. Content that is submitted by our users and the open-source community are also reviewed by our dbt Labs subject matter experts (SMEs) to help ensure technical accuracy. Versioning and single-sourcing content We now enable you to reuse content between different docs pages, version pages, and establish product variables in the dbt Labs product documentation. To learn more about how to single source content between versions, product variables, and other content, see Single-sourcing content.
