Reporting an error
The most useful contribution is correcting an error. If a doctrinal citation is out of date, a CPG link is broken, an ELO is misattributed, or a clinical detail is wrong: report it.
Include:
- The page where the error appears.
- A specific quote or section identifier.
- The correction, with a source if applicable.
Submitting content
The site is maintained as a public Git repository of MDX files. Substantive content additions go through a pull-request workflow:
- Fork the repository.
- Create a branch with a descriptive name.
- Edit or add the MDX file(s).
- Run the OPSEC checklist (in the repository) on any new or substantively edited page.
- Submit a pull request describing the change and citing sources.
Contributions are reviewed for accuracy, OPSEC compliance, doctrinal alignment, and editorial consistency before merging. Pull requests that lack source citation will be returned for revision.

Significant content contributions are credited on the relevant page or in the Acknowledgments section of the About page. Minor edits and corrections are credited in commit history.
