What can I Contribute to WordPress in general?

Are there any Guidelines?

Who's in Charge?

The Codex Effort is guided by its 25 Admins. The Task List identifies who is working on what projects and offers a list of things that need to be done on the Codex, too. Leave a message on the User Talk page of any of the admins if you need help, or direction. You can also join the wp-docs mailing list and send a message to the list in case you have any questions. The admins are benevolent, and will help and mentor you, if you need that.

If you need to contact anyone within the WordPress Administration, visit their WordPress Contact page.
