[issue33043] Add a 'Contributing to Docs' link at the bottom of docs.python.org

New submission from Carol Willing <willingc@gmail.com>: Adding a 'Contributing to Docs' link at the bottom of the docs.python.org page between 'Reporting bugs' and 'About Documentation'. This could link to the devguide section on contributing to docs or provide a short paragraph including: - the importance of CPython docs as well as other Python projects (warehouse, popular libraries, etc.) - link to the devguide and its section on documentation - link to the core mentorship mailing list - link to docs mailing list As an example, the Rust project's Docs-Contributing page is a good start: https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/contribute-docs.html ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 313549 nosy: docs@python, willingc priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Add a 'Contributing to Docs' link at the bottom of docs.python.org _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33043> _______________________________________

Ned Deily <nad@python.org> added the comment: That's a good idea. I see that there is already a "Found a bug?" link at the bottom of each doc page and that links to a page like: https://docs.python.org/3/bugs.html and that page has a Documentation Bugs section. Perhaps adding a link or two in there would help. ---------- nosy: +ned.deily _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33043> _______________________________________
