The Documentation Team is part of the Production Department. Our team handles creating and maintaining all the official Joomla! documentation. This includes documentation for end-users, administrators, third-party developers and administrator Help Screens. Additionally, the team also maintains api.joomla.org
 
Our primary focus is docs.joomla.org. You DO NOT need to be a member of this team to contribute to JDocs, it is a wiki. If you can improve something on JDocs, please create an account and contribute.

Documentation Helpscreen Team (JDocs)

The Documentation Helpscreen Team is a sub-team of the official Joomla! Documentation™ Working Group. The aim of this sub-team is to update and maintain the help screens, in order to reflect the latest version of Joomla. As soon as Help Screens are updated, they will be marked for translation to be available for most.

Documentation Translation Team (JDT)

The Documentation Translation Team translates the English Documentation into several other languages

Read more: Documentation Translation Team

en-GB User Interface Text Team

The official language of Joomla is en-GB and yet the actual strings we use have been created, over 10 years, many by people who are not native en-GB speakers. Establish official style guidelines for writing en-GB strings. Ensure consistency throughout Joomla. Provide translation teams with an easy framework and guidelines to create their own style guides. The style guide is a living document that may be updated and added to over time as the need arises. The style guide will be maintained by native en-GB speakers.
