# How to Contribute

Anyone can read the wiki. Editing works in steps so that nothing about a health claim goes live without a second person checking it.


1. **Suggest a correction.** Open an issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/shep-analytics/biohackerwiki/issues) with the page, the claim, and a PubMed or DOI link. Please don't include your own health details.
2. **Become a contributor.** After a few accepted suggestions, an editor can invite you. Sign-in uses an emailed link; accounts are invite-only. Contributors draft in the private Submissions collection and can comment on public pages.
3. **Review and publish.** Editors check each draft against the sources and the [Evidence Levels](https://biohackerwiki.com/doc/evidence-levels-EXcemtrrLh) rules. A change to any health claim, dose or interaction needs an editor other than the author before it is moved into a public section.

Rules for every page:

* Start from the Article Template page. Keep it short, neutral and sourced.
* Every claim needs a PubMed, DOI or NIH link. Unsourced claims are removed.
* Report what studies did and found. No "you should", no recommended doses, timing or protocols.
* Prefer systematic reviews, meta-analyses and large trials. Label single small trials and animal studies as such.
* No affiliate links, product promotion or copied text. Declare any conflict of interest.
* Contributions are licensed CC BY-SA 4.0.
