Hi Twinkle,

Thanks for your interest! Since there are a large number of pages to be updated for fixing this bug, you can just start updating the pages without assigning the bug in your name first. Once you've fixed any pages, you can add a new comment here with link(s) to the pages you've fixed and someone will take a look and give you feedback.

Hello!

Glad you want to work on MDN documentation tasks. Please see this Bugs Ahoy page that lists documentation tasks that are beginner friendly (also someone will be glad to mentor your efforts) -> http://www.joshmatthews.net/bugsahoy/?mdn=1

Saurabh, I wonder whether we should close this bug, because doing editorial reviews is a task, which will never be finished as new review requests come in from time to time.

Hey Sebastian,

My intention for the bug was for it to stay as an entry point from Bugs Ahoy. Since creating separate bugs for each editorial review is a little too much, I thought a single live bug might be useful.

But it looks like it hasn't seen much action, so feel free to close it.

I believe it makes more sense to create smaller bugs, not for each editorial review request, but for a clearly defined group of requests like everything releated to CSS Grid Layout for example.
