+==================
+Contribute to Docs
+==================
+
+This documentation has been build using the Python `Sphinx <http://www.sphinx-doc.org/>`_
+documentation tool.
+
+Since the `Ethereum tests <https://github.com/ethereum/tests>`_ repository is very
+large to clone locally, a convenient way to contribute to the documentation is to
+make a fork of the test repo, add the changes online with the GitHub markdown editor
+and then open a PR.
+
+If you want to clone to your desk you might want to make use of ``git clone --depth 1``
+for faster download.
+
+You can build the documentation by running ``make html`` from the ``docs`` directory
+in the tests repository.
