The A11Y Project is not participating in Hacktoberfest 2022

The A11Y Project is not participating in Hacktoberfest 2022.

Examples of past Hacktoberfest contributions we are not looking for include, but are not limited to:

• Creating unnecessary or unwanted files, especially ones that don't map back to an existing issue.
• Commits that add extraneous words in existing files, especially site documentation.
• Files uploaded via GitHub with no context.
• Minor cosmetic changes and self-described improvements to documentation that don't actually improve our content.
• Localization attempts that fork the site and do not provide mechanisms for our team to ensure translated content is up to date.

Rejections are in-line with policies outlined in our existing Contributing Guidelines.

We hope that this does not affect new participants interested in making constructive contributions to our project. Issues labeled labeled as a "Good First Issue" are a great starting point for working with the project in a meaningful way.

If you are looking for a good resource for contributing effectively to a project that participates in Hacktober, Monica Powell has a great guide.
