How to contribute to the Awesome Ontologies for the Social Sciences

Do you want to propose a new resource to be added to the list, or an edit/update, or did you find a mistake (e.g. a broken link) and want to report it? Please read this document! But first, thank you for investing your time in contributing to our project and sharing your knowledge!

Option 1: Pull requests (PRs)

To submit a changed version of the list (README.md) with your own additions, you can work on the GitHub web interface. We recommend the following:

  • Fork this repository in your own workspace (please note: you can also do it by clicking on the little edit/pen icon on the top right side of the Markdown viewer on the GitHub web interface)
  • Commit/push your changes in that fork; please do not forget to add a short description;
  • Submit a pull request to the master branch of this repository.

Formatting rules

When editing the list, please:

  • Please follow the logic of the headings and the general Markdown formatting rules; you can always preview the results;
  • If you add a new category, please add a pointer to it in the table of contents;
  • To list a new resource, first add a link to it, then a colon (:), and then a short but informative description of the ontology; please have a look at existing entries for examples;
  • Resources should be listed alphabetically within categories;
  • If available, also add a DOI pointing to the resource on FAIRsharing. For any doubt, you can also open an issue and/or send an email.

Option 2: Create an issue

Click on Issues and create a New Issue. A template for proposing new resources is available. Otherwise, create a blank issue, add a short and informative title, explain your suggestions in the Comments field, and submit the issue.

Option 3: Send an email

If you don't have a GitHub account, or if for any reason you prefer to send an email, please feel free to do so and contact Angelica Maineri.

List yourself as contributor

When you are done, please edit the contributors list and add your name, affiliation and ORCID at your own discretion.
