Data for the 'languages' and 'contributors' sections is pulled from the project's GitHub main repository using the GitHub API. In order to merge the GitHub API data into the finished card, you need to put the project's GitHub id in the 'identification field'. To find the id, go to the GitHub homepage for the project's main repository and search the page source for <meta name="octolytics-dimension-repository_id" content="#####">; the number in the 'content' field is the id you want.

Leadership

To create a Slack link for each person, go to the project's Slack channel, find a message from that person. Click on their name; this should give you a popup window with the user's picture, name, and a link to "View full profile". Click on "View full profile". That pane gives you the options message, call, and more. Click on "more" and you should be shown "Copy member ID" followed by the actual id. This is the id you need to use in the slack url, e.g. https://app.slack.com/team/<member_id_here
