This is a really good task for beginners, you can help this awesome list by checking the repositories list.

If you find a repository that:

  • Is not available anymore
  • Is not being maintained anymore (11+ months of inactivity)
  • Is not accepting pull requests anymore for hacktoberfest 2020
  • Pull requests are not counting for hacktoberfest
  • Repositories that are "only to add your name" or something that's clearly an attempt to simply +1 your pull request count for October.

For hacktoberfest 2020 maintainers have to opt-in their repositories to the event to make pull request count
Maintainers can do it in two ways:

  • By adding the topic hacktoberfest to their repository
  • Or by adding the label hacktoberfest-accepted to pull requests.

You can make a pull request removing one or more of these repositories.

Yes you can @ashleypean, and also everyone else who wants.

This issue will be recurrent, so anyone who wants to contribute refining the awesome Hacktoberfest 2020 can grab this.

@OtacilioN I'd like to contribute to this.
Please clarify, is 11+ months of no activity an acceptable threshold for unmaintained?

@OtacilioN

Excellent question @FaithOmbongi!

Let's set 11+ months as threshold, because:

  • Even projects focused in hacktoberfest should be maintained not just in October
  • We are in the preparation month, so contributors are already warming up and maintainers should prepare for hacktoberfest 2020.

So we can remove all repositories with 11+ months of inactivity.

Just to make clear, to all you folks, if a repository contains hacktoberfest in the topics, they don't need to label each pull request as hacktoberfest-accepted, because the entire repository has already opted in Hacktoberfest event.

You can check the repository topics in the superior right of the repository as you can see in this screenshot.

@OtacilioN Please see PR #288. Removed Open Source Code as the pull requests made to this repository won't be counted towards Hacktoberfest 2020. Thanks!
