= Introduction =

## Describe:
## the teams's purpose and community role
## the team tasks and work
## who might be interested in joining/getting involved with the team

The '''Documentation Team''' is a group of community volunteers responsible for writing, editing and updating the system documentation that ships with the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Edubuntu desktop operating systems.  New versions of these guides are released with each new release of Ubuntu, and these are translated through the translation tool Rosetta in the same manner as all of the other applications in Ubuntu.

= Projects =

## List currently the team's current projects and tasks as well as status and contact persons for each one. Make it easy for new people to know who to ask and where to go to get involved with a specific project.

The two types of documentation that the team is responsible for are:

 * [[/SystemDocumentation|System Documentation]] - the documentation which comes with every Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Edubuntu system. It includes the Ubuntu Server Guide.
 * [[/Wiki|Wiki Documentation]] - the help wiki is a community edited resource that anyone can edit.

For information on how to contribute, visit either of the two pages linked above. If you need help understanding the team's processes, you might want to [[/Contact|contact the team]], or even [[/Mentoring|join the mentoring scheme]]!

= Style Guide =

All the team's work is subject to our style guide, which can be found at the [[/StyleGuide]] page.
