Contribute

Everything on this site is maintained in a public GitHub repository: slolab/aiforscience.eu. All routes into the record run through it.

Ways to contribute

Propose a practice. You have observed something that works and holds up. Use the Propose a practice issue template. State the practice as an imperative, the context in which it was learned, and the evidence.

Challenge a practice. You disagree with a practice, or your experience contradicts it. Use the "Challenge a practice" template. Challenges with concrete cases are the most useful input the record gets.

Submit a document. Your organisation has a strategy paper, report, or guideline the record should digest. Use the "Submit a document" template with a link or DOI. An editor distills it into a Library entry, with an AI-assisted draft reviewed by humans before anything is published.

Discuss. For open-ended topics, use GitHub Discussions. Each practice page also has a discussion thread at the bottom.

No GitHub account? Use the AI for Science Google Group, or write to aiforscience@googlegroups.com. Proposals, challenges, and comments sent there are carried into the record by the editors, with attribution unless you ask otherwise.

Edit directly. Every page has an edit button that opens a pull request. Follow the conventions in the repository's CLAUDE.md (page structure, metadata schema, writing style).

Editorial standards

• Short declarative sentences. Every word carries information.
• Claims cite sources; distillations cite section and page.
• Neutral coalition voice: the record speaks for its contributors collectively, never for a single institution.

What happens to your contribution

Editors review all input in the open. Accepted practices start as draft, move to reviewed when the editor group accepts them, and to endorsed when a named organisation formally backs them. See Governance for details.
