What does this MR do?

Author's checklist (required)

  • Follow the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.
  • If you have Developer permissions or higher:
    • Ensure that the product tier badge is added to doc's h1.
    • Apply the ~documentation label, plus:
      • The corresponding DevOps stage and group labels, if applicable.
      • ~"development guidelines" when changing docs under doc/development/*, CONTRIBUTING.md, or README.md.
      • ~"development guidelines" and ~"Documentation guidelines" when changing docs under development/documentation/*.
      • ~"development guidelines" and ~"Description templates (.gitlab/*)" when creating/updating issue and MR description templates.
    • Assign the designated Technical Writer.

Do not add the ~"feature", ~"frontend", ~"backend", ~"bug", or ~"database" labels if you are only updating documentation. These labels will cause the MR to be added to code verification QA issues.

When applicable:

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.
    • Ensure docs metadata are present and up-to-date.
    • Ensure ~"Technical Writing" and ~"documentation" are added.
    • Add the corresponding docs:: scoped label.
    • Add ~"tw::doing" when starting work on the MR.
    • Add ~"tw::finished" if Technical Writing team work on the MR is complete but it remains open.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
