Becoming a Documentation Editor!

Welcome! Documentation editors play a key role in the DIY Drones community. Our ongoing discussions and efforts for the Ardupilot.com sites can be found here at the APM Wiki Editors Discussion Group. The best way to get involved in documentation is to pay the Editors Discuss group a visit, request to join the group, and start participating!

If you'd like edit permission on the Ardupilot.com manual sites, to fix or add something, please join the group above. We'll send you an introductory email with information about how to get started editing the APM Wikis.

This group here on DIY Drones has mostly just an organization role; it's a way for people who would like to join the documentation team to register their interest, and to show them the correct steps in getting started.

Step One: Join the Wiki Editors Discussion Group
Step Two: Once you've been given edit permission, a guide to editing the manuals is here

Hello,

I have just joined the Doc Editor group.

I don't seem to be able to access this link:

http://dev.ardupilot.com/wiki/common-editor-information-resource/

Is this link still active?

Thanks

Alex is starting to post in the wiki editors google group because it is easier to discuss separate topics than here.

Ok now i understand whats up with the previous post

the page shows the download image that would be found on the next page after selecting the newest build manually, its missleading as people have been telling me its not working because they were clicking on the screen shot shown as an example of the final download button that would be shown on the files page
