Tech Docs update June 16, 2023
Hi everyone, This is the first in a series of twice-monthly updates to share what the Tech Docs Team has been working on. For more details, you can follow along on our Phabricator workboard.


 * Documentation metrics dashboard
 * We continued building the underlying functionality for the MVP of the dashboard, including the ability to fetch and display lists of pages and support for left-to-right and right-to-left styles. We're working through some legal questions around open source licenses before we can publish the code, but we're hoping to have this issue resolved soon.


 * Team processes and practices
 * As a newly formed team, we began the process of setting up our team documentation, contact channels, and work management practices, including this page.


 * Content mapping and user journeys
 * We continued working on content mapping to identify missing landing pages for user journeys, focusing on analyzing landing pages for using open data and hosting tools.


 * Decision records
 * We started developing a standardized template for decision records. If you have feedback on the proposed template or on decision records in general, we'd love to hear from you on T338835.


 * Pywikibot documentation updates
 * As part of an ongoing project to update and streamline the Pywikibot documentation, we completed updates to the Pywikibot on Toolforge tutorial.


 * Wikimedia Developer Portal
 * A big thanks to User:Sushrith Bogi for fixing a link, and to User:BDavis (WMF) for setting up a CI check to improve the contributor experience.
