Creating documentation for the WordPress app

@thabotswana, a Happiness Engineer at Automattic, joined the meeting to brief us on the need for documentation surrounding the details in the post Refocusing the WordPress App on Core Features:

  • The WordPress mobile app is going to have all Jetpack/Automattic features removed. It will be focused on WordPress coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. features to distinguish it from the Jetpack mobile app.
  • There’s a need for support articles on the WordPress.org site, and for the Documentation Team to take ownership of them.
  • Automattic does have a small team of WordPress.org-sponsored contributors and @thelmachido will be assisting.
  • Currently, there’s some documentation on WordPress.com, and much of it can be repurposed.
  • The sections that don’t apply due to the major changes scheduled for the app will need editing, and some screenshots will need to be updated.
  • Users are now being directed to the new WordPress Mobile App Forums.

Open floor

@thomasdevisser opened a discussion to find a better structure for the GutenbergGutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/ documentation:

Discussion on application for Google Season of Docs

The discussion surrounding the application for the Google Season of Docs has been rescheduled to the next meeting.

Check out the additional details in the summary from the previous bi-weekly Docs Team meeting under the same heading.

Collaboration on HelpHub and DevHub redesign request

@estelaris noted the following for translating documentation:

  • The HelpHub and DevDocs redesign request post was published to gather information on processes and needs from locale teams.
  • @estelaris is presenting and discussing the new documentation sites (HelpHub and DevHub) in a recent WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. and will work with the Spanish team.
  • @javiercasares has ideas on how to test/try out ways of translating.
  • @estelaris is working on figuring out if we can use the Inventory as a tracker for polyglots so they are aware when we upload new articles.

How to improve the Glossary in WordPress

Also, in terms of collaboration with the marketing team:

  • @estelaris is looking into the marketing team’s initiative to move the WordPress Glossary to a different place as a single source of reference for WordPress terms.
  • The idea is to replace the many glossaries in the handbooks and make sure we are using the same definition for matching terms.
  • Make teams should be in charge of updating and adding new glossary terms, as needed.
  • @chanthaboune is aware of this initiative and has requested to be updated so support can be provided.

Update on the Docs inventory

This part of the meeting was unintentionally missed so it will be added to the agenda for the next bi-weekly Docs Team meeting.

Open floor

@estelaris has already reached out to the 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. team, but asked if any one had suggestions on how to get a page listing for the Support Articles page in Spanish. There are currently no sitemaps on the Rosetta sites:

  • @javiercasares suggested an alternate solution if other options aren’t available: Creating a page with the link list by using an APIAPI An API or Application Programming Interface is a software intermediary that allows programs to interact with each other and share data in limited, clearly defined ways.. One currently exists, though, it’s empty.

Project checks

@leonnugraha worked on the Navigation block article during the WC Asia Contributor Day. Because it’s so outdated, it requires a new document once the WordPress v6.2 release candidateRelease Candidate A beta version of software with the potential to be a final product, which is ready to release unless significant bugs emerge. is out. Work on this article will continue then.

@femkreations completed gardening the closed pull requests in GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers.

Additionally, 4 issues in 6.0 and 1 issue in 6.1 were closed.

@estelaris mentioned that the biggest ticket for the categorization project – moving technical articles to DevHub with issue #388 – is now closed. A big thank you goes out to @JavierCasares.

Discussion on application for Google Season of Docs

The discussion for a proposed application for the Google Season of Docs has been rescheduled to the next meeting.

Google has a program where you can apply as an open sourceOpen Source Open Source denotes software for which the original source code is made freely available and may be redistributed and modified. Open Source **must be** delivered via a licensing model, see GPL. project. If you get chosen, Google will help you with the project’s documentation.

In 2020, the Documentation Team participated, and our style guide was completed. We need to think of a good project in order to be chosen since the competition is high. @milana_cap is already making inquiries to see if we can participate again this year.

It’s important to note that the application process has changed so this will also need to be considered in future discussion.

@sereedmedia mentioned asynchronously that the glossary may be a great project to apply for and @estelaris agreed.
