Apply to Review

This page contains information on how to become a reviewer of the D&I badging program. To review submissions for D&I badging, you need to sign up as a reviewer first. The best way to start is with our sign-up form!

The Reviewer Form

Please go to the Reviewer Application Form to sign up.

{% hint style=”warning” %} We no longer support Pull Requests as reviewer applications. We invite you now to sign up using the Reviewer Form. {% endhint %}

The reviewer form requests the following personal information:

  • Your Name: Supply your full name. D&I Badging will not share the name with applicants or spread it unless you are willing to post your name on the website.

  • Your GitHub Handle: This will be later added to the reviewer list in reviewer.md file under the badge/event-diversity-and-inclusion repository once you become a member of the reviewer team.

  • Your Email Address: D&I Badging uses your email address to contact and communicate with you, and will not share or publish it on the website.

  • Your Organization(optional): You can choose not to share this information with us. D&I Badging asks for the organization to know the further background about you, and will not share or publish it on the website.

Below are the most important questions:

  • Who you are and why you’re interested in the CHAOSS D&I Badging Program.

  • Your history with Diversity & Inclusion in Open Source.

We will also ask:

  • We want to know if you would like to include your name on our website as a CHAOSS D&I Badging Reviewer. If you agree with that, your name will show on the bottom of D&I Badging Page.

  • We also require you as a reviewer to identify and act upon any conflicts of interest. Please see the D&I Badging Conflict of Interest Policy for more information.

The D&I Badging team will be notified once you submit the form. They will contact you through email to set up a meeting to explain the reviewing process.

After the meeting, your GitHub handle will be added to the list of current reviewers. There is a badging bot that assigns reviewing tasks - don’t forget to open email notifications for D&I badging repository to avoid missing an assignment!
