Hi Vincent!
I'm glad you want to contribute, however, unfortunately the docs project
doesn't maintain the Wiki (I know, it's a bit counterintuitive). We take
care of content on the docs portal (
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/).
The Wiki, content-wise, doesn't actually "belong" to any one group -
people get edit rights automatically when they join any group as
contributors, be it docs, marketing, a technical SIG...
If you're only interested in contributing to the Wiki, then please see
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Help:Editing#Gaining_Edit_Access -
especially point 3. Basically you should open a ticket for infra to get
access if you don't want to get involved in any other aspect of Fedora
right now.
If you change your mind and decide you want to contribute to the docs
published on docs.fp.o, let me know. (Note that not all of these docs
are maintained by us either; the Docs Project actively maintains the
portal and some of the docs listed under User Docs, the rest is split
among various groups maintaining their own docs repos and we make sure
they're published and provide help if needed.)
Cheers,
Petr

Hi everyone,
I've created a new FAS account last week as I am interested in fixing
up/contributing things on the Fedora wiki. Once my account has been
created, I was told I need sponsorship to get out of the 'CLA+1'
category so here I am (thanks to Pierre-Yves Chibon for the
confirmation on the process!).
I have been using Linux for quite some time now (2001): I started with
Debian and then Gentoo Linux, then Mandrake and Ubuntu. I have been
using Fedora for ~5 years now and I love it (a great mix of current
and sleek software along with stability).
I have been wanting to contribute back in one form or the other for
some time, usually I report bugs or fix documentation as a start
(hence the introduction on this list :). I love free/libre software
and think it is very important in the SW/freedom ecosystem.
Skillset-wise, I work as an embedded computing engineer. I have worked
on RTOSes as well as certification projects (DO-178C like). I know
C/assembly and OSes but also Python as well as cloud-related
technologies (having worked on Kubernetes/Docker/Helm and AWS/GCP). I
am currently doing infrastructure/container work (another great reason
I like Fedora!) around Automotive Grade Linux projects. I am also fond
of maker-related technologies like 3D printing.
I am now back on the CEST zone, after living for several years in the
US (PDT/San Francisco). As I said, so far, I am interested in fixing
pages I use on the wiki for typos/inacurracies/etc.
Thanks for reading and have a great day everyone!
Best,
Vincent
PS: I have noted the bits about my GPG key and I am working on it.
Will post a followup when this is done.
