Contributing

Anyone can suggest new cards or improvements to existing ones — that's what keeps the deck alive. Before submitting, read the Submission Guidelines once, then use the Card Submission Checklist each time you submit.

Suggesting a new card

1. Write it — click Add (shortcut: A) and set the note type to MalleusCM - Cloze. Other note types can't be submitted. Add cloze deletions with Ctrl+Shift+C / Cmd+Shift+C.
2. Reference it — fill the Source field with an accepted source, URL, and access date (see Referencing).
3. Tag it — at minimum one Subject tag, one Rotation tag, and a Yield tag. The Malleus Helper add-on does this for you (see Tagging). Untagged cards are usually rejected.
4. Submit it — click 👑 Suggest a new note, or select several cards in the Browser, right-click → AnkiHub: Bulk suggest notes.
5. Add a rationale — one or two sentences on why the card should be accepted.

The maintainer team will review your submission and email you the outcome. Minor change requests appear as comments on AnkiHub Community (no email, so check back).

Suggesting an edit

Spotted an error or a card that could be better? Press E during a review (or edit in the Browser), make your change, then click 👑 Suggest a change and add a brief rationale. The same review process applies.
