Correct README.md

[rexagod]

Hi, this is a first-timers-only issue. This means we've worked to make it more legible to folks who either haven't contributed to our codebase before, or even folks who haven't contributed to open source before.

If that's you, we're interested in helping you take the first step and can answer questions and help you out as you do. Note that we're especially interested in contributions from people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software!

We know that the process of creating a pull request is the biggest barrier for new contributors. This issue is for you 💝

If you have contributed before, consider leaving this one for someone new, and looking through our general help wanted issues. Thanks!

🤔 What you will need to know.

Nothing. This issue is meant to welcome you to Open Source :) We are happy to walk you through the process.

📋 Step by Step

• 🙋 Claim this issue: Comment below. If someone else has claimed it, ask if they've opened a pull request already and if they're stuck -- maybe you can help them solve a problem or move it along!

• 📝 Update: There is currently a spelling error in the README file's third point. Replace "databse" with "database", and then submit your first PR. Also have a look around this repository since we have many interesting issues for you to solve!

• 💾 Commit your changes

• 🔀 Start a Pull Request. There are two ways how you can start a pull request:

1. If you are familiar with the terminal or would like to learn it, here is a great tutorial on how to send a pull request using the terminal.

2. You can also edit files directly in your browser and open a pull request from there.

• 🏁 Done Ask in comments for a review :)

Hi @rexagod, I had just found that the databse error on your repository is not resolved at. I'm submitting a PR in regard of this can you please help me by checking that PR and it would be great if you can able to merge that PR.

[grvsachdeva]

Hi @HarshCic, you should ask in the issue (here) first before opening the PR so as to get update regarding the issue status. Also, before you, @Marieram and @ctam853 have shown interest in solving the issue, so if the issue has no PR, they should get the chance to take a dig at issue. But, as the issue is just a typo solving and your first PR at Public Lab, we will accept the PR. Please take a note that it's an essential part of our community to claim issue first and then open the PR, so as to not do redundant work and respecting other contributors interest. Thanks!

Hi @Marieram and @ctam853, sorry but this issue is solved in #335. You can find more FTO issues at https://code.publiclab.org/#r=all and in case, you don't see any unclaimed issue there, feel free to comment below, I will open issue for both of you. Thanks!

Hi @gauravano, I understand the community guidelines but I too thought the same as it is just a typo and no one resolve it till then and it is my first PR with publiclab as well which makes me somewhat excited.. but absolutely I will take care from next time. Sorry, @Marieram and @ctam853.

[marielenna]

Hi @gauravano! Thank you for getting back to me. I currently do not see any unclaimed issues. If there are any first-timers-only or documentation issues available, please send them my way. Thanks again.

@Marieram I will surely mention you, whenever I see one open or I'll open a new issue whenever I get a chance. Thanks!

[grvsachdeva]

Hi @Marieram and @ctam853, I have created FTO's for both of you, find them at publiclab/plots2#4820 and publiclab/plots2#4819 . I have mentioned both of you in a issue. Please comment there to acknowledge your claim. Thanks!

[rishik-varma]

Can I take this issue as I am a beginner to open source and fixing this issue will boost my confidence.
