Hey @HeyYuvraj, I'll review the contribution submission in detail at the beginning of next week and follow up with feedback afterwards. 🙂 |

Hey @HeyYuvraj I took a first look at your submission and wanted to share some initial feedback. One thing that stood out quite quickly is that the structure and overall presentation of the text does not fully align with our documentation guidelines. The formatting and phrasing also resemble a typical AI generated content, especially in the way the content is organized. Using AI tools to help with ideas or to improve wording is generally not an issue, and we also make use of them in certain situations. However, the content should not primarily rely on AI-generated outputs or follow the typical bullet-point style and generic phrasing often produced by such tools. Otherwise it makes the purpose of the Contribution Program superfluous, which is intended to reward individual effort and original work. This does not mean that you did not put work into the guide, but the text structure and writing style should be revised to better match our documentation standards. In particular, we aim to avoid bullet-style or checklist-like instructions and instead prefer a more natural guide structure. If you could revise the text accordingly, we will then proceed with the final review afterwards. In case you have any questions regarding this, please let me know. 🙂 |
Revise the TrueNAS SCALE guide to better align with documentation standards.

Hi @HeyYuvraj , we accept your submission for this contribution and thank you for your interest and participation in the Contribution Program. However, even after the first revision, several adjustments were still necessary because the writing style in some sections was quite short and dry. In addition, a few minor content changes were required to ensure the documentation aligns with the current standards. As a small note for the future regarding images, we generally try to display as many images as possible in a larger format. This makes it easier to follow the content without the reader having to constantly move their eyes between elements and helps keep the layout more consistent. It is also worth taking a look at the GIF feature in ShareX. In some cases, multiple steps can be shown in a single animated image, which can help reduce the total number of separate images needed like we do in a quite a few guides already.
