| - To add a new entry, [edit the README.md file](https://github.com/Kickball/awesome-selfhosted/edit/master/README.md) through Github's web interface or a text editor, and send a Pull Request. | ||||
| - See [Editing files in another user's repository](https://help.github.com/articles/editing-files-in-another-user-s-repository/), [Creating Pull Requests](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/), [Using Pull Requests](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/) for help on sending your patch. | ||||
| - A script to help you format new entries is available at (it requires `make` to be installed): `git clone`/[download](https://github.com/Kickball/awesome-selfhosted/archive/master.zip) and enter the repository, run `make add` and follow the instructions. | ||||
| - The list of contributors can be updated with `make contrib`.  | ||||
| - Software with no development activity for 6-12 months may be removed from the list. | ||||
|  | ||||
|  * The **syntax** for links is ``- [Name](http://homepage/) - Short description. ([Demo](http://url.to/demo), [Source Code](http://url.of/source/code)) `License` `Language` ``. | ||||
|  * All projects must have their **license** and main server-side **language**/platform/requirement listed | ||||
|  * Project descriptions must be less than 250 characters long. | ||||
|  * Entries must be ordered alphabetically. | ||||
|  * Entries in README.md must be [Free Software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software). | ||||
|  * Non-[Free](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software) software must be marked `⊘ Proprietary` next to the title, and added to [non-free.md](../non-free.md). | ||||
