Please consider a Patreon for doc review. I don't mean reviewing the doc against the project for fitness, as that's the job of each project to maintain and review their own docs; I mean by a technical writer who can de-localize (you only think I mean 'internationalize') the document and make it syntactically and logically correct against a generic, classic style guide.
The rising popularity of really bad errors is definitely turning me off from videos or documentation from a few sources with a lot of churn. It ruins the flow and it robs the assumption of authority which I'd argue is an important part of any documentation.
That is a good idea. I am fairly certain I could get funding and/or loaned resource time for English, Spanish, French and German, but crowd funding incentivized localization for other regions is brilliant.
