This form is to request your name to be added to the "about:credits" page in the Pale Moon browser, which lives on the web at http://www.palemoon.org/Contributors.shtml. A place is available to anyone who has made a significant contribution to the Pale Moon project, with useful results. If that's you, then please fill out this form.

It is a BIG help to us if you read and follow these instructions carefully. They are rather lengthy because they try to help you avoid the most common issues people have with their requests, and prevent unnecessary time spent on processing these requests.

IMPORTANT: you should assume that _everything_ (except your e-mail address) you put into this form is, or will become, publicly readable.

NAME GUIDELINES

Some notes on names. Names are a complicated subject. We do our best to accommodate everyone's wishes without compromising aesthetics or propriety. Please:

* Give your name as your normally use it - so if you don't use your middle names in a normal day, don't include them.
* Do not include "nicks", "handles", titles or qualifications.
* Supply at least two non-abbreviated name components if at all possible.
* If your normally-used name does contain initials, place a dot "." after each one.
* Place the components of your name in the order customary in your part of the world. (Use question 2 to tell us how your name should be sorted.)
* Use a romanized form of your name, if your country does not use the Latin alphabet.
* Within the above restriction, you may use any Unicode character.
* Use Initial Caps, for consistent presentation.

Examples: Fred Bloggs, Mao Ze Dong, Søren Sørensen, Tatjana Nakova, Nguyễn Xuân Sơn.

QUALIFICATION GUIDELINES

To qualify for inclusion, you need to have "made a significant contribution, with useful results, to the Pale Moon project". There are several key parts to this definition - "significant", "useful results", and "Pale Moon project".

Therefore:

* Only include activities which are directly overseen/governed by the Pale Moon project ("official", you might say). Although this credit attribution list includes many names from the Mozilla project for historical reasons, any contribution to Mozilla does not qualify you automatically for the list of credited Pale Moon contributors.
* Make sure you've made a significant investment of time and effort; remember, you can always apply later when you've done more things for the project.
* Make sure what you did was actually useful to Pale Moon itself.

Things which are great to do but which *don't* count for this include:

* Telling your friends about Pale Moon, or promoting Pale Moon on websites or social media.
* Running an independent website.
* Building OS-specific/contributed builds.
* Building Pale Moon add-ons.
* Fixing just one or two bugs (unless they are big ones).
