Welcome to the coordination page for all Joomla! documentation sprints. Besides events such as a dedicated Joomla Doc Sprints, these events can include Code Sprints, Pizza, Bugs & Fun and other similar events where working to improve Joomla documentation is encouraged.

Please join us for these documentation events at locations around the planet and/or virtually. We have tasks for everyone; coders, non-coders and documentation translators. Our aim is to dramatically improve the quality of documentation available for Joomla! users and developers.

Upcoming Events[edit]

Here is a list of our upcoming events. Please feel free to add to this list in a recent to last order by date of event.

Registration[edit]

for write access to this wiki[edit]

To get write access to this wiki you will need to register here first. Please be aware that the registration process requires a valid email address. If you are travelling to one of the physical locations you are advised to ensure that you have registered on this wiki and have a valid login before you travel. You don't need access to your email account after registration.

  • Important! - You should review the Wiki policy
  • Get your user account a few days before and make sure that you are able to sign in since the automatic authorization system can lock some people out.
  • Test out your editing by editing your user page! You can get the details on how here.
  • If you'd like something to be edited, but you're not sure what to write exactly, use talk pages to add comments to pages.
  • During the event, several experienced Wiki editors will be available in the Skype chat to help you.
