To add a mentor you need to create a file with your github username <username>.yml in _data/mentors folder and please maintain the following format EXACTLY (replacing values where indicated):

name: Your name
github: Your github username
image: your_image
bio: Some bio about yourself
blog: https://yourbloglink.com

IMPORTANT:

• All images must be optimized before uploaded to the repo via commit or PR. You may use any image optimizer of your choice.
• The images should be 240 x 240 pixels.
• Adding Facebook, Twitter, Github, etc. is not obliged. But if you do not want to include social media accounts, please do not provide empty fields like facebook:. Ask the mentors if you do not know their accounts.
• Avoid using contractions such as can't, don't, etc. If there is no choice (e.g. the name has single quote mark) put double quotes (") around that part.
• Try to use abbreviations in your name wherever possible, i.e. restrict it to 13 letters (including spaces), otherwise it might be truncated automatically. However, the name will be displayed completely when you hover on it on the website.

Probably the easiest way to seek help is to comment on your Task instance. Please understand that it is not easy for mentors to stay available 24/7 to reply to every comment.

You can instead participate in various chatrooms where you can ask both students and mentors for help. Here are few links to chatrooms that you could join for support:
