Update, change, or add information to a case

A company or organization that Whose Data? is researching is called a ‘case’.

You will find all the cases Whose Data? is working on, or has verified in this folder.

You're invited to suggest updates, changes and to add information to any of these cases! Here's how:

  1. Go to the Case Folder
  2. Open the case you want to edit
  3. Click the edit button on the case you've chosen
  4. Add the information, using Markdown for formatting. Here's a great Markdown cheatsheet.
  5. Click 'Preview Changes' if you want to see what you additions will look like
  6. When you're done, scroll to the bottom and under Commit Changes write a short note about what you changed/added, make sure 'create a new branch' is selected, and click the green 'Commit Changes' button!

This will create a pull request in Github, asking me to review and approve the changes. Once this happens, if your suggestion is approved the article will be updated!
