Alexandra Settle 85107272be [contrib-guide] Updating url to doc-contrib-guide

as the doc contrib guide outside of the title.

This change includes a redirect.

Use recommended UI action labels

It is important to use consistent labels across an action.

Delete Destroys an existing object. Label can include the object being deleted, such as Delete Image.
Download Transfers a file to a user's local system.
