Submission Notes
- NO MORE THAN 1 SITE PER REQUEST WILL BE ACCEPTED
- it's easy enough to make multiple requests, and it helps.
- if you have a huge batch, contact the editor.
- Check that the site is up and the link works
- if the onion site is down, the site will not be added / may be removed from the list; no exceptions.
- HTTP and/or HTTPS only
- check for SSL availability, upgrade to that if available and add a 🔒 emoji.
- Structure
- SecureDrop in the SecureDrop section NO EXCEPTIONS
- GlobaLeaks in the GlobaLeaks section NO EXCEPTIONS
- only SD and GL sites take a "proof" URL
- maintain alphabetical sorting for entries
- elide leading "The" from sitenames
- stick to the existing categories
- onion site comes first in listings
- Contact the editor for anything more complex than a simple update.
Main Lists
Pull requests for the main list will be accepted only for entries of the form:
## Sitename
* <url of onion> [<lock emoji if https>] [<site notes, four words max>]
...
[(site note in parentheses)]
If there are many onions, submit a few, key, ones, plus an "index" page for the others. The "index" page must be an onion site, and must be followed with a sub-bullet for its cleartext equivalent; see existing examples for precedent.
If the Sitename
is an acronym, append / <acronym spelled out>
If the site is locally scoped or an umbrella for several
organisations, consider appending (.cc; <notes>)
where cc
is the
ISO 2-letter country code.
Drops & Leaks
Pull requests for the SecureDrop or GlobaLeaks lists will be accepted only for entries of the form:
## Publication, Site *or* Journalist Name [ / 1..4 word description ]
* <url of onion> <lock emoji if https>
* <first-party "proof" url citing the above url>
