Shortlinks

Before you create a shortlink, review the shortlink rubric to determine if your shortlink proposal meets the requirements.

  1. Review the /docs/go/_redirects.yaml file to make sure that the proposed keyword doesn't already exist.
  2. If the keyword is available, append the following to /docs/go/_redirects.yaml:

    - from: /docs/go/keyword
      to: /docs/path_of_shortlink
    
  3. Send your change for review.

  4. Add a shortlink reviewer to review your change.

If your proposal is rejected, a reviewer will list the reason for the rejection and include a rationale.

If your proposal is approved, you may submit your shortlink. Once the change is rolled into the build, the shortlink will go live on fuchsia.dev. The link will resolve at both fuchsia.dev/go/<keyword> and fuchsia.dev/fuchsia-src/go/<keyword>.

Become a reviewer

Reviewers are expected to meet the following criteria:

  • Reviewers must be knowledgeable about Fuchsia. Typically, contributors acquire this knowledge by working on the project for a substantial amount of time and by interacting with multiple parts of the system.

  • Reviewers must enforce the shortlink criteria detailed in the rubric.

If you meet the review criteria, you can create a change to propose yourself as a member by editing the OWNERS file of the /docs/go/ directory.
