by connecting and giving a more centralized area to connect and find information enabling github discussions on your repository repository owners and people with write access can enable github

people with write access to the source repository can create new categories for organization discussions collaborators participating in and creating new discussions can group discussions into the most relevant existing categories discussions can also be recategorized after they are created for more information see managing categories for discussions to organize discussions more granularly you can apply labels for example you can use labels to indicate the status of a discussion to make triaging more efficient each repository has one shared set of labels for issues pull requests and discussions for more information see managing labels promoting healthy conversations people with write permissions for the repository or for the source repository for organization discussions can help surface important conversations by pinning discussions deleting discussions that are no longer useful or are damaging to the community and transferring discussions to more relevant repositories owned by the organization for more information see managing discussions people with triage permissions for the repository or for the source repository for organization discussions can help moderate a project s discussions by marking comments as answers locking discussions that are no longer useful or are damaging to the community and converting issues to discussions when an idea is still in the early stages of development for more information see moderating discussions next steps once there is a clear path to scope work out and move an idea from concept to reality you can create an issue and start tracking your progress for more information on creating an issue from a discussion see moderating discussions did this doc help you privacy policy help us make these docs great all github docs are
