Project Updates

HelpHub Redesign

Update from @estelaris – There are no updates on the HelpHub redesign project yet but estelaris still need help with articles link review. All the articles must be reviewed, most are fine and few are not, and those few are the cause of plenty of fix-link requests. If anyone wants to review, ping @estelaris. The task is only to identify the wrong links and there is a team in charge of approving and updating the links. @ashiquzzaman showed interest to review the articles

Block Editor Developer Doc

Update from @justinahinon – The table of content pull request (https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/28665) is ready to be merged.

End User Block Editor team

Update from @bph  –
@geheren and Mathew McCabe had their sprint; @poena had also participated. Discussed the end-user documentation for Full Site Editing. The plan is to wait until the Prototype is released, and then again until Beta of 5.8 to see what will make it into core. WP 5.7 changes are now available in our Spreadsheet and Trello board. 

The team is also getting ready to touch almost all pages to implement More Options link/page enable comments and add a note to the change-log as with which WordPress version a page is currently. @Geheren added that to all the pages in the Trello board. Once @collinsmbaka publishes his page, all contributors can start working on it. A plan is in place to welcome new contributors to the team.

Skipped for this meeting.

Google Season of Docs

Update from @tacitonic:
Completed 15/28 articles in the Word list and usage dictionary. Parser will be completed by Monday, i.e. today. The project finalization phase for Google Season of Docs begins from today. He’ll start writing a P2 on make.wordpress.org/docs after the final project report. Google Season of Docs 2021: The organization application phase has also begun for this year’s program.

Open Floor

The team discussed using GitHub as opposed to other tools, as GitHub would also reduce the use of Trello to some extent.
