Can a Contribution URL link to a google drive folder?

Hi,
@seanlip When recording a contribution, can the contribution URL be a link to a google drive folder containing the contribution?

Hi, Yes, it should be a Google drive folder link containing all 5 reviewed documents.

[hickmaSulley]

Okay. Thanks.

Hi @hickmaSulley

We were advised that for the task 1 for the oppia lessons, we should put the 5 reviews into a Google drive folder and share the link as an url into the contribution via the contribution url. So I guess the answer is yes.

Thanks. I thought so too after seeing "Put these five docs in a folder and submit this folder as one of your Outreachy contributions." on the Project Contribution Information section of the Oppia project 1 but when recording my contribution I saw " The URL could a link to a GitHub/GitLab issue or pull request, a link to the mailing list archives for a patch, a Gerrit pull request or issue, a contribution change log on a wiki, a review of graphical design work, a posted case study or user experience study, etc. If you're unsure what URL to put here, ask your mentor. " and that's what led me to want to verify if google drive is an accepted medium cos none of them specified or added it to the list of the accepted medium.

You are right. And just as it has been answered, the 5-docs submission constitutes one contribution so its logical to submit as one by putting all in a folder in your google drive and inserting the link of the folder as the contribution url. Sure👍

so basicaally, we shouldn't record a single lesson review as a contribution yet, until you have all 5 right?

[Bennykillua]

No @mkpouto-inyang you wouldn't be hitting the submit button till you have all five

[hickmaSulley]

Yes. The review of the five lesson together is recorded as a single contribution

[Bennykillua]

yes exactly @hickmaSulley
