Add a Page
Before you add a new page, see the list of existing issues. You can add a new issue to propose a topic, or comment on an existing issue. By creating or discussing an issue, you can clarify a problem, identify a solution, and propose a format for a new page. When you’re ready, comment on the related issue that you want to write the new page.
To add a page and open a pull request, you must first create a GitHub account. We recommend that you configure two-factor authentication for your GitHub account.
