As we start reaching out to external contacts who are willing to help us, once they have given us advice, please either
make an issue to track their name down in our internal wiki so Lucy or a wiki liaison can add them to the attributions page; you can make another issue to add updates to the external contact throughout the season
or directly edit the iHP page yourself with your external contact and update that entry throughout the season.
The earlier we record down an external contact the easier it is to track so we can add them to our competition wiki.
