We should start preparing our repo for this year's version of Hacktober Fest.
https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com
For starters, how about we start creating issues for commands not currently documented and adding a help-wanted label to them and probably a hacktober-fest label as well.
I think we had a hacktoberfest tag last year, IIRC - so we can definitely recreate it. What's it meant to be called exactly to be counted, @mfrw?
Also, we've got a few issues left over from _Google Code-In_ which we can probably tag too. They are all testing frameworks of one form or another, I think.

Could please explain a little more, I could not get the context @sbrl
I'm assuming @sbrl was asking the exact label name, I can't remember if there was a recommended one. But hacktoberfest seems to be more common than with a dash. As far as I know, any repositories are included whether or not they have a hacktoberfest label. :thinking:
@pxgamer yes, any repo that is public is eligible.

I have that impression as well. I don't recall ever seen it spelled hacktober-fest.

Yes, all PRs count regardless of whether there's an associated issue labeled hacktoberfest, but having the label definitely increases the visibility for participants (and I believe the search link is included in the event's website, which is an extra boost).
Last time, I had simply renamed help-wanted to hacktoberfest. And then reverted that once it was over. Saves time adding new labels to all issues.
As Hacktoberfest has started, I have renamed the help-wanted label to hacktoberfest as per last year.

Awesome, thanks @pxgamer! Does that mean that we can close this issue then?
@sbrl I guess so..
I'd say so, yeah. :+1: Closing it now.
Just need to remember to change it back in November. :stuck_out_tongue:
I might need to set a reminder email there @pxgamer :P
