From d830d9019c5d4d20daa12ee14b7d4d3b642bef72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: elaismoreau <49794318+elaismoreau@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Fri, 3 May 2019 13:22:18 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Update COMMUNITY_GUIDELINES.md @uiboy Thank you! @bardurc Good idea, I've added the asterisk added before "On harmful beliefs". @lifenautjoe Sorry about my HTML tags. Full disclosure, this is my first time with Markdown (and GitHub) :), but not with HTML. I was used to making anchor links that way (either with the name or id attributes), and I had checked to make sure it was applicable with Markdown, as shown here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6695439/how-to-link-to-a-named-anchor-in-multimarkdown So if HTML tags can't be used in the app... what should we do about the anchor links? I just tested them, and they still don't work for me; when clicked on from within the document, they do nothing, and when they are accessed from outside the app, they just point at the top of the guidelines page:(. I'm committing the asterisk change to the patch-2 branch, I hope this comment goes after the ones already posted by @shantanu, @bardurc and @lifenautjoe. --- docs/COMMUNITY_GUIDELINES.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/COMMUNITY_GUIDELINES.md b/docs/COMMUNITY_GUIDELINES.md index 25ec545d..836c3e2d 100644 --- a/docs/COMMUNITY_GUIDELINES.md +++ b/docs/COMMUNITY_GUIDELINES.md @@ -159,7 +159,7 @@ Making Openbook a healthy and welcoming community for everyone is a shared respo Points borrowed from the [Norwegian Data Protection Authority](https://www.datatilsynet.no/personvern-pa-ulike-omrader/internett-og-apper/bilder-pa-nett/bilder-av-barn/). -#### On harmful beliefs +#### * On harmful beliefs Some beliefs can cause real life harm.
