[BUG] Maintaining Consistency in code-quality.md
#1,504 opened on Nov 3, 2020
Description
Summary of Issue
The Turing Way project is an open-source endeavour that empowers contributors from around the world to leverage their skills, knowledge and expertise to build and expand its content. The Turing Way guides are evolving with multiple chapters co-developed by individuals from varied backgrounds, who are all passionate about sharing knowledge around data science and research. To sustain and support this vibrant community, The Turing Way book must remain consistent and accessible as it evolves. Although the style guide chapter already outlines guidelines for keeping a consistent style across the book, not all chapters follow these suggestions as they have been written asynchronously by different authors.
We have curated a consistency checklist that chapters in The Turing Way need to pass to help us maintain a consistent style across the book. However, we need your help to push this forward!
For reference, the checklist is discussed in the chapter on maintaining consistency in The Turing Way. There you can also find useful instructions on how to address these issues
At the time that this issue was created, the maintaining consistency chapter is yet to be merged. However, you can check out the PR here
