Just looking at the Docs page, the most suitable place seems to be: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/join/However, if there was completely separate top level section such as "How to contribute" > "Packaging" > "Joint the package collection maintainers", I think this would give use also place for e.g. "Package_Review_Process" which would be next natural candidate for move from wiki.

First, they are outdated, there is no need for external Githosting since the anonymous checkout from src.fp.o method can now be used.I think the anonymous checkouts are enabled for ages, but the problem is that without Fedora account with correct privileges, you cannot create the PR on src.fedoraproject.org.Perhaps the set of required privileges has been relaxed recently, then. Currently, the anonymous checkout method requires only creating a Fedora account and maybe some configuration that you can do yourself. That is how I started contributing to Fedora, and it worked.Currently, the documnetation is in the wiki. Am I correct that this kindof content should go to docs.fp.o? If so, I can make a pull request to move it. Either the whole _Joint he package collection maintainers_ page, or just the one-off contributions section. Does anybody here know what would be the correct course of action?If you open any documentation page, there is a link to "Want to help? Learn how to contribute to Fedora Docs." at the bottom. From there, you could get to:https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-docs/contributing/adding-new-docs/[Contributing to existing docs][1] would be more relevant, because the content would fit well to [Quick Docs][2] that already has packaging related articles. However, that is beside the point. The reason why I ask here is that I am unsure what is the correct location for this material. Both docs and wiki have similar material. Wiki has more, but on the other hand wiki declares right on the front page that is [not for documentation][3].[1]: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-docs/contributing/contributing-to-existing-docs/[2]: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/ [3]: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Project_Wiki#This_WikiDocs would be a better location for the one-off contributions section inparticular. If anyone needs that information, they likely do not have the required groups in the Fedora Accounts to update the wiki. In case they discover anything is wrong or missing. With docs, that is not a problem, since the pull request method works there.Not sure if the idea was not that wiki is easier for adjustments, because if nothing else, you don't need anybody to approve the PR.Yes, it is easier to update the wiki than the docs since the fork-clone-commit-push-PR-review mechanism is not involved. But like I already said above: "If anyone needs that information, they likely do not have the required groups in the Fedora Accounts to update the wiki." This was also my situation when I stated this thread, though I have been added to a suitable group since then. I think I will just update the existing wiki page. The wiki or docs question seems muddy, so I think it is best to simply update the content where is resides now.
