What Makes a Good Ticket?

Here are some tips for writing a good ticket:  


Title 

Title should be concise and meaningful

Good: “Error in CK Code: ch1-3 ”, “Question about confidence intervals”

Bad: “Help me!”, “Issues”

 

Description 

A good description will tell us:

  • what the issue/question is
  • what it relates to on the page

Good: “There is a typo in the second paragraph. The text says “conferdince interval”, when it should say “confidence interval”

Bad: “My R code won’t work”
