There has been "a lot" of discussion re: things for new contributors to
do and learn.

a) this seems to be "well-defined", and imho, suitable as "easy", etc..
b) isn't this something we want new people to be more aware of (as you
said, you have been working with this for a year)
c) it is an area (Documentation) I have clearly 'missed' as I focused on
'other things', and, with myself and many projects I have worked on over
the years - Documentation seems to come in last. Getting new (and
newish, as myself) working here only makes us better suited for review
in the future.

So, I guess this is an area where you could "mentor", perhaps create
"issues" that specify the "paragraphs", or whatever you think are
appropriate 'chunks' to make review sensible (if not also easier).
