Cultivating a friendly writing style and tone in O3DE Docs
Presenter: @AMZN-Gene @chanmosq
Length of time: 15 minutes to explain situation come up with next steps. If time allows, maybe more discussion.
O3DE Documentation tend to have a more technical and matter-of-fact tone. While this is appropriate for writing docs, tutorials have a more casual nature and can benefit from a friendlier tone. A friendlier tone can make documents more welcoming and easier to understand.
We want to address the expectations/standards for docs reviewers and contributors regarding cultivating a friendly tone where it's appropriate.
SIG role in tooltips, in-editor help, etc etc
Presenter: @sptramer
Length of time: 10-15m
The docs sig occasionally gets requests to review in-editor help information, and most importantly, our role in in-editor help has come up across the PRs o3de/o3de.org#1339 and o3de/o3de#6555. Engineers may be unwarily making changes which impact the user experience of documentation, and we should consider the sig-docs-community role in making sure that in-Editor documentation resources (whether static strings, site links, or something else) are appropriately reviewed and updated.
