Hi, intrigeri suggested I could review the "how to contribute to Tails infrastructure" page, and due to a misunderstanding I assumed he was referring to
https://tails.boum.org/contribute/index.en.html and thus reviewed this page. So, for this page review to not go to waste, I'll send this it here so anyone interested in improving this page now or later may take it into account. Thanks, Alster My feedback: A. First part of the page (until, but not including, the table of contents) * Provides a good overview about how people can contribute to Tails (though I cannot claim to know all the available options and thus cannot be sure it is complete). Thanks to the icons used and the small blocks of short text it is visually appealing. * The "User" section could be renamed to "Contribute your Tails experience" and the "Donate" section could be renamed to "Contribute financially" to be in line with the other sections, though I admit this makes them somewhat cheesy. * I suggest to replace the "designer" icon (which is currently identical with the "writer" icon) by one which is more closely related to visual arts, such as a palette or drawing board - if there is someone available to provide additional icons in the same style. * All the web links in this section work and point to pages which provide the information the links to them discuss. Several links point to the same page, and actually only discuss part of this page. Maybe anchored links could be used to directly point people to the matching content / section on these pages. But then anchors can change, so maybe that's why they are not being used here. * I'm not sure whether the headings "Contribute with your language skills" and "Contribute with your computer skills" should remain as they are or whether the word "with" should be dropped. A native English speaker will need to comment on this. B. Second part of the page (starting at the table of contents) * I _guess_ that this is actually the former version of this page, since it starts with a table of contents in the middle of a web page. * The information provided in this part of the page seems relevant to me, but I also think it clutters this page and should go to a separate page instead, which is then referred to by the pages the first part of this page points to, where it makes sense. For example, many (but not all) of the topics discussed here are primarily relevant to those who work on software (a designer may not need or want to know about how to build Debian packages - it may actually drive them away) - so these could be linked on https://tails.boum.org/contribute/how/code/ * The note saying that "there _are_ currently no way to contribute to Tails if you do not understand English" should instead say: "there _is_ currently no way to contribute to Tails if you do not understand English" However, this statement can at least partially seem to contradict the first part of this page which also discusses ways to contribute to Tails, and will likely be translated (?), and I assume you do not intend to receive donations only from those who understand the English language. On the other hand I see how even for most organizational matters basic understanding of the English language will actually be a requirement. * All the web links in this section work and point to pages which provide the information the links to them discuss. Thanks, Alster
