Is this issue for one of the freeCodeCamp repos?
Or another repo?

Can you link the issue for us?

It looks like that particular issue has two open PR’s that will resolve the issue.
So it is no longer open for first timers only

but in the future, for first timers only, you will want to read the note left by the maintainer.

In this case, I left the note and linked this file here

For this issue, the fix needed to be done is to the description here

Change your `rows` declaration to be an array with the strings `Naomi`, `Quincy,` and `CamperChan`. The order of values in an array is important, so follow that order. Remember that strings are case-sensitive.

The issue is that there is a comma inside the backticks for Quincy’s name

`Quincy,`

that makes it seem like that should be part of the answer.

But the fix should be this

`Quincy`,

You will first need to read through the contributing guidelines to learn how to setup freecodecamp.

Then you will need to open the file linked in the issue.

Update the file description with the correct answer.

Then go through the process of creating a PR.

Here is a good video on how to start working with Git and GitHub

hope that helps
