== How to join the Docs Project
Anyone with a link:++https://accounts.fedoraproject.org/++[FAS] account can open a pull request. However, if you would like to work with us more long-term, or maybe become a maintainer or help us with merging other contributors' pull requests, there is a formal process where you can join the Docs Project.
First, we would appreciate if you came and said hi to us in our Matrix channel, `#docs:fedora.im`, and made a few contributions to docs. After we get to know you a little bit, you can open an issue in the link:++https://forge.fedoraproject.org/docs/tickets/issues++[Tickets repository] and use the "New team member request" to nominate yourself. You can also have someone who is already on the team nominate you instead using the same template.
After you or someone else opens that issue, there is a 7 day minimum waiting period during which current team members can vote. A successful nomination requires at least 3 `+1` votes and no `-1` votes. Negative votes are extremely rare, and are handled on a case by case basis.
Once the nomination gains 3 "yes" votes and a week passes, we will add you to the Docs Team FAS group, which will give you a higher level of access to any docs repositories such as merging pull requests.
//TODO: Once we have a separate Quick Docs group, update the above to mention it as well, there's going to be a separate template
