Labels are used to classify and organize issues raised on GitHub. Each issue should ideally be assigned both a type and a status, and may be assigned additional labels.
## Status
### Revisions Needed
Additional information or context is needed. The requirements for opening an issue are listed in [the contributing guide](https://github.com/digitalocean/netbox/blob/develop/CONTRIBUTING.md). Issues flagged as needing revisions will be closed if no modifications have been made in a week.
### Gathering Feedback
Community feedback is requested to determine whether the issue represents a valuable addition to the project.
### Accepted
The issue has been accepted for action in its current form. Please note that this _does not_ guarantee that a proposed feature will be implemented.
### Rejected
The issue has been closed because it is invalid, out of scope, or provides insufficient value relative to the work required to implement it. Please don't be offended if a feature you have requested is rejected: We receive many feature requests but can only implement those which are most appropriate for and beneficial to NetBox's intended scope.
### Blocked
The issue has been tentatively accepted, however development can not proceed until one or more other issues (identified in the comments) are addressed.
### Duplicate
This issue is a duplicate of or greatly overlaps with an existing issue, which will be linked in a comment.
## Type
### Enhancement
An enhancement represents an improvement to existing functionality but does not on its own introduce a new feature.
### Minor Feature
A feature which provides new functionality but does not introduce substantial change. Minor features may alter existing data models but may not introduce new ones.
### Major Feature
A feature which significantly extends the scope of NetBox's functionality. A change which involves introducing a new data model must be classified as a major feature.
### Bug
A bug represents a deviation from intended or expected behavior in NetBox. Bugs generally take priority over enhancements and new features.
### Housekeeping
Housekeeping entails any work that is done to improve or maintain the code base, but which is largely transparent to the end user and does not result in any changes to NetBox's behavior.
### Documentation
All issues relating to the maintenance or extension of documentation are tracked using this status.
### Invalid
Any issues not fitting one of the above classifications is considered invalid and will be closed.
## Other Labels
### API Change
Enhancements or features which result in a change to the API necessitate a bump in the minor version number. This label is used to identify these issues.
### Help Wanted
Issues with this label have been identified as good candidates for community contributions.
### Beta
These issues are relevant only to development occurring in a beta branch and do not affect the main code base.
