Documentation Working Group Overview

About

The mission of the Documentation Working Group (DocWG) is to ensure that excellent documentation guidelines, policies, and standards are in place, and that tools and processes are available to achieve this, for both the Drupal Core as well as for contributed projects (modules, themes, distributions, etc.), and for documentation as part of these projects as well as for the community documentation on Drupal.org.

The DocWG acts as a group to maintain these documentation guidelines and processes, and to recommend and guide development of tools and infrastructure that are needed for documentation.

The purpose of the DocWG's activities is to enable the community to create and maintain online documentation for both core and contributed projects that is accurate, complete, and maintainable.

For more information about the working group and it's governance read the Documentation Working Group's charter.

Contact

The Documentation issue queue is the main channel for questions and remarks. Use the Policies and Procedures component to bring specific issue to the attention the DocWG, and Docs Infrastructure if you have a suggestion on how to improve documentation tools/software.

The Documentation group on groups.drupal.org is open for community discussions, announcements, etc. related to documentation. We invite you to join, and participate (or start) discussions there - but keeping in mind that the main official channel for contacting the DocWG remains the issue queue.

If you have suggestions for the next This Month in Drupal Documentation post use the contact form to email your suggestion to any of the members of the DocWG.
