Hi Artem, I sometimes receive feedback that Ignite docs has potential for improvement, while I found our docs quite intuitive and simple to understand. So if experienced tech writer will join community it could benefit all of us, and users, of course. So you're very welcome to the community!
About idea of fields introduction I guess we will need assistance of Apache Infra team, because Ignite shares JIRA with all other Apache project. And I'm not sure that technical implementation of proposed process is even possible without plugins. Could we consider some manual processing of completed issues in relation to doc requrement?
