# Contribution attestation guide

Some contribution efforts are not as easy to digitally verify. Contribution attestations are a way for people to vouch for another contributors contribution efforts. These attestations help to provide some evidence that a contributor has actually made the contributions they say they have.

**Contribution attestation process**

1. **Review contribution efforts** - Review the contribution efforts listed in the contributors contribution log. Determine which contribution efforts you are able to vouch for based on your own observations and involvement in those contribution efforts.
2. **Create contribution attestation** - Fill in the contribution attestation template information and post the attestation as a comment in the pull request. A [contribution attestation template](https://funding.contributors.org/contributor-funding-experiment/templates/documents/contribution-attestation-form) is available for reference as well as an [example contribution attestation](https://github.com/web3association/contributor-funding-experiment-example/pull/2#issuecomment-2253817574) on a contribution log pull request.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://funding.contributors.org/contributor-funding-experiment/experiment-setup/templates/guides/contribution-attestation-guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
