In addition to the many missions and badges already available in the SAP Community, there are two badges to recognize valuable documentation contributions.
These badges are:
-
Open Documentation Initiative – Provide Feedback: Earn this badge when you provide feedback that leads to an improvement in the documentation.
-
Open Documentation Initiative – Contribute Content: Earn this badge when you contribute content using the pull request method. The pull request has to be merged and included in the documentation before this badge is awarded.
While the contribution activities themselves take place in GitHub, recognition is recorded in the SAP Community. This means that in order to assign a badge, we need to know your identity on the SAP Community. This is so that qualifying contribution activities in GitHub can be recognized correctly for you.
If your contribution qualifies, you'll be asked in the issue or pull request for your SAP Community user ID. This is the numeric value referred to as your "User ID" on your personal settings page, which will appear like this:
Change display name for User ID 53
In this example, for user 'qmacro', the user ID is 53. Note that the user ID also forms part of the user profile URL, right at the end:
https://groups.community.sap.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/53
When asked, please reply with a new comment in the issue or pull request as directed, supplying your user ID so that your badge can be assigned.
