'''NOTE:''' The team formerly had a much broader mandate to improve Launchpad's help material. However, we now share that mandate across the entire Launchpad community, so discussions about documentation should take place on the [[https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev|Launchpad Dev]] mailing list or in the [[irc://irc.freenode.net/#launchpad-dev|#launchpad-dev IRC channel]].
