) with the following content and submit a pull request:

If your verification fails:- Check that your domain file is correctly formatted
- Verify that the TXT record matches exactly what Discord provided
- Wait for DNS changes to propagate (this can take up to 24 hours)
- Try the verification process again after waiting
- DNS changes haven’t fully propagated yet
- The verification string doesn’t match exactly
- The domain file format is incorrect
