[CLAassistant]

All committers have signed the CLA.

[CleanMachine1]

Sorry, but the cla needs my private email. Who will be able to see that and where will it be listed (eg a contributors file somewhere)

[CleanMachine1]

I am perfectly happy to sign the license agreement however I am not willing to give my private email to it

[bl-ue]

Sorry, but the cla needs my private email. Who will be able to see that and where will it be listed (eg a contributors file somewhere)

@CleanMachine1 None of us have access to your email. I'm not sure what cla-assistant.io does with it, but they certainly keep it private (I don't think any human has access to it on any side).

[CleanMachine1]

Is it mandatory for it to be done?

[bl-ue]

Yes, it is, for legal reasons 😞

There's absoluately no danger of your email being exposed though!

[marchersimon]

@CleanMachine1 you could however use another email for your commits and add it to your GitHub account.

[CleanMachine1]

Unfortunately not...
The cla agent requests private emails

Also I already use the githubnoreply for commits

I am currently migrating my account so I will have agreed to it in a day or 2

[CleanMachine1]

Don't close this PR and I will have it signed or whatever in the next 24 hours (probably)

[nicokosi]

👍 Looks good to me!

Oops, licence Agreement is missing.

[CleanMachine1]

Read up and see! Good to here its alright though

[CleanMachine1]

Had a free hour, all is done and signed @nicokosi
If you want to give the "review" and merge I would be happy!

[CleanMachine1]

Do you know if I can remove CLA assistant from my account after this is merged?

[bl-ue]

Do you mean unsign the CLA?

[CleanMachine1]

No, remove it from my OAuth applications list, revoking access from my private email

[bl-ue]

Ah yes, I'm sure you can do that. But you'll need to do it all over again if you want to open another PR... 😄

[CleanMachine1]

Ok, well considering it took me 20 seconds to think of topic to cover, I will find another command I use which isn't here.

Overall been enjoying this repo, been using it for around a week.
I have a suggestion I will add, it is for gpg

I often encrypt single files and the command is gpg -c file

[marchersimon]

The whole command isn't just about the battery, but about power in general (including line power, the display, etc.), so I would replace battery with power everywhere.

[CleanMachine1]

Can collab leave reviews, like what you have done. I like the sound of playing a role in helping!

[marchersimon]

They do. You can also make reviews now, it just doesn't affect the merge status if you approve or request changes.

[CleanMachine1]

Which status do you have to be to make status changes with reviews.

[bl-ue]

Collaborator or organization member. All you need is write access to the repo, which both roles have.

Btw, I'm preparing a reply for you, so be patient ;P

[CleanMachine1]

Ok, I don't know what you are replying to however I look forward to whatever it may be.

[bl-ue]

@CleanMachine1

I see a lot of people lost collaborator status today

That's not true, exactly. @marchersimon opened issues to discuss whether or not we should remove them, but they're

They were interested in the repo at various times over the years, so they were invited as collaborators, to make it easier for them to contribute. As with everyone though, their interests shifted onto other things, so they became less and less active. It's been a while, so they aren't helping out with the maintenance tasks nor contributing pages, so @marchersimon wants to remove them, not as a demotion or punishment or anything of the sort, but as a reflection of their actual involvement in the project :)

how hard is it to gain

Not hard at all! Usually, when we see someone contributor several pages (5 is the minimum per COMMUNITY-ROLES.md), and that person seems particularly active, we open an issue inviting them.

I am very interested in this repo, ever since starting Linux, I always found it an annoyance to scroll through man pages.

❤️

I may start to commit and help more, if you would like me to.

That would be fantastic! Contribution of any kind from any contributor is desired, as this is a community volunteer-based project (i.e. the maintainers were and are just tldr users).

Can collab leave reviews, like what you have done. I like the sound of playing a role in helping!

Any user with a GitHub account can leave reviews on any PR in any public repository. They can comment, suggest code changes, etc. Really, you don't even need to be a collaborator to help out with tldr-pages. But collaborators and organization members/owners (both roles have write access to the repo) can label and close issues/PRs, and merge PRs, in addition to the common things that every user can do.

I like the sound of playing a role in helping!

😍 That would be amazing! Please, open a few more PRs with some nice, high-quality pages (and maybe help out fix a few existing open PRs) and you'll be elligible in no time.

[CleanMachine1]

Well the reason I am so interested is I (for some reason) like to make documentation.
I always hate products that have terrible documentation, software is no exception.
I will probably produce some really small branches, I am currently just about to push a branch which changes a certain word.

I don't expect to gain collab or anything similar from these commits however it would be nice 😄

Expect me to keep following this, even if I stop for a week, continue to ping me with review requests as I will happily do them ASAP.

[marchersimon]

Some things to check out if you want to:

• Our Let's document issues:
• Since you seem to know a bit web development: our i18n page and it's open issues
• Our Gitter channel

[bl-ue]

Since you seem to know a bit web development: our i18n page and it's open issues

I didn't think of that! I see you guys have opened some issues there, and I'll watch that repo, too.

[CleanMachine1]

Push?

[Waples]

I'm waiting for @marchersimon 's response to my question about the more information link.

[CleanMachine1]

@Waples review?

[Waples]

No need to be so impatient @CleanMachine1.

[CleanMachine1]

Not trying to be impatient, sorry about that. Just sending you a notification that your input is wanted

[navarroaxel]
