She said that we need to find a better way of doing this.
    • To which @sagargurnani replied that we (docs team) never hotlink the GH issues, instead we download the screenshots from GH and upload it to the posts we are editing. And, he suggests that we need to be more careful while reviewing the tickets.
  2. @estelaris mentioned that the following articles need a review of the Font Library article for 6.5 because there are changes on 6.6 are needed to be added.
  3. @estelaris wants someone to review the following ticket (for simple Chinese language) before she approves it because it is a new way of implementation which was never followed before.

Upcoming Meeting 

Project Checks

@calolan is waiting on feedback on issue 1510 before moving forward to adjust her other tickets accordingly.

People who attended WCEU are working on tasks that surged from the meetings there.

Open Floor

@milana_cap Invited anyone who wants to volunteer to help documenting end user docs for 6.6. 
@JuanMa from release squad can guide with place where tasks live and what’s highest priority

@estelaris updates:

  • Continue working with the Spanish team to translate HelpHub
  • Write up the notes from the localization/translation meeting we had during WCEU (we/I/docs team have several tasks)
  • Write a proposal/discussion post for docs team regarding Matt’s request to change all documentation to “wiki”-style. I would like to invite other teams that write documentation (support, training, themes, plugins, developers) to find the best way to add this
  • Finish up the 6.5 HelpHub documentation
  • Help review anything from 6.6

@estelaris Won a Wapuu design at WCEU and had a Docapuu

@calolan asked for adding the task to the tickets. @estelaris and @milana_cap proposed to be more clear with the instructions on the tickets (example issue 1510)

@milana_cap updates:

There is an effort to utilise Playground for editing docs. It will look like this:

  • on the page there is an “Edit” button
  • you click the button and editor opens (in Playground)
  • you edit and hit another button “Submit” or something similar
  • edits are pending Docs team review
  • Docs team approve or reject

In the background, Playground will be connected to GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged by the repository owner. https://github.com/ for saving the content (making PRs and such). So the whole contributing experience promises to be more simple, without thinking about other platforms, accounts etc.

Localization and translation of HelpHub during WCEU 2024

The team working on the localization and translation of end-user documentation (HelpHub) will meet again during contributor dayContributor Day Contributor Days are standalone days, frequently held before or after WordCamps but they can also happen at any time. They are events where people get together to work on various areas of https://make.wordpress.org/ There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus. https://2017.us.wordcamp.org/contributor-day/ https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/ at WCEU on Thursday 13 June at 12:30 UTC. Location will be announced at contributor day.

The agenda is as follows:

Goal: Create a plan of how to move forward with the localization/translation of documentation project

  1. Discussion: Cross-team communication
  2. Discussion: What does GlotPress need to move forward. GlotPress has a translation memory, but it’s not context-aware. This makes automated reuse of shorter strings harder.
  3. Discussion: Can we use GH as a docs issue tracker, in the same way global does it? Or can we take advantage of the global docs issue tracker and create labels for languages? How are other teams doing it? Spanish team started with this: https://github.com/orgs/WordPress/projects/195
  4. Request: What does metaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. need to prepare Rosetta sites for the documentation page, First discussion: https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7637

Future plans for HelpHub
