Uptick in docs contributions for Gatsby Hacktoberfest

Since the start of Hacktoberfest on October 1st, the Gatsby open-source community has experienced a significant increase in documentation contributions, with 31 pull requests merged in just the first five days. This surge of contributions has prompted the creation of the @gatsbyjs/docs team on GitHub, which ensures consistent decision-making regarding documentation edits through a newly developed "docs decision tree." This tool helps standardize the process by which documentation is evaluated and integrated, ensuring alignment with agreed-upon principles and avoiding biases. The decision tree provides criteria for whether a document should be included on the Gatsby site and offers guidelines for handling proposed changes, such as creating new documents or categories. Contributors are encouraged to focus on SEO-friendly naming conventions and to adhere to the developer journey framework. The community is invited to participate in the ongoing discussion about the Docs Decision Tree RFC until October 31st, and the initiative has been met with enthusiasm and gratitude from the Gatsby team.
