Looking for feedback
We decided to clear the clutter in the Learn 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/ repo, and we need volunteers to help us n that project. If you want to help us in validating the issues, triage process and finding and reporting errors in our published content, reply to this thread. This is your opportunity to make a difference. Remember – every contribution counts!
- Our Guide program is active – if you need any help in onboarding process, we are here to help you.

Open Discussions
If you have topics you’d like discussed in the meeting, please leave them as a comment on this issue.
If anyone has anything async, please reply in this thread, and we can keep the discussion going.
- @Mosescursor: Do we have a policy on AI content, Is it something we can discuss???
- @rfluethi: I think that’s an interesting question. As far as I know, nothing like that exists yet. AI can certainly be very helpful as a supporting tool. But do we need clear rules for its use? And if so, in which areas — and what might those rules look like in practice?
- @mohkatz: True, this is important as AI gets more integrated in all workflows and across teams. Our fellow colleagues/volunteers at #docs had kickstarted something I saw a few months ago not sure how far they’ve gotten with its implementation. We could also formulate something similar or more streamlined guidelines that leverage AI without sacrificing human originality, thought, agency, creativity and voice. https://make.wordpress.org/docs/2025/07/24/proposal-responsible-ai-workflow-for-creating-new-documentation-for-wordpress-6-9/
