Welcome to the team! How would you like to help out with the
documentation? You can find some ideas and information on our wiki page
[1], but if it's running Windows applications that you're interested in
you might like to consider contributing to the wiki's Wine documentation
[2].

Please let us know if we can help in any way.

Thanks,

Phil
