Check Your Profile Settings: Go to your GitHub profile settings by clicking on your profile picture in the top right corner, then selecting "Settings." Make sure that the private repositories you've contributed to are indeed set as "private" repositories in your organization. If a repository is mistakenly set as "public," contributions to it won't count as private contributions. Check if the repositories you've contributed to are owned by your organization "Meteor." If the repositories are owned by another organization or user, your contributions may not be counted on your profile. Ensure that the email address associated with your GitHub account matches the email address used in your commit authorship. GitHub uses the email address in the commit to attribute contributions to your profile. Sometimes, contributions take a little while to appear on your profile due to caching. Wait for some time and check if the contributions appear after a while. If the issue persists despite checking all settings and verifying ownership, consider reaching out to GitHub Support. They can investigate the issue and help you resolve it. |

For more details on what counts as a contribution and how to manage your profile, you can refer to GitHub's documentation on contributions. I hope this helps clarify the situation. |
