# Contributing via Issues
Contributing via Issues is pretty simple but there are some rules:
- Keep issues tab dedicated to guides issues only, no personal hackintosh issues. It is not a place to discuss installation issues.
- If for a typo or better clarification, please indicate what page it was on. Would appreciate not going for a scavenger hunt on where these issues are.
You can find the issues tab here: Getting Started With ACPI Issues (opens new window)
# Contributing via PRs
Some guidelines when contributing via PRs:
- Use your brain (please).
- Proofread your submissions.
- Pull Requests can be denied if we feel it does not fit or has inaccurate information. We will generally tell you why it is rejected though or ask for revisions.
- We would also appreciate sources for any bigger commits to make it easier on us to verify the info your provide is valid
- Images must be hosted locally in the repo under the
/images/
folder - Your PR must be run through a markdown lint and have all issues fixed.
- In general, try to avoid using "non-Acidanthera" tools when possible. Generally we want to avoid use of third-party tools - though if it's impossible otherwise, then you can link it.

will attempt to fix these.
