One of Fedora's major goals as a distribution is to work closely with upstream projects, and finding easy ways for people to contribute to the upstream projects through Fedora. Our translation team did a great job creating Transifex, an easy way for upstream to make this projects available through a common interface for anybody interested in translating it. What you could do, and it would be entirely in the spirit of Fedora to do so, is: a) Fix the bugs you find, even if it's in an upstream project (e.g. Your typo) b) Find ways to make it as easy for others to do the same as possible I'd argue that this kind of issue is exactly the sort of thing the docs project should be looking to tackle in the future, but then again I'm probably (I won't say definitely, I actually find this idea really interesting!) not going to be doing the work... I hope this helps, and I really hope you go on to not just contribute to docs created by members of this team, but also to help upstream get more exposure and more help writing their own docs :) Let me know if I can be of any help!
