Leslie:
It looks like you found some areas that could certainly use improvement!
If you would please report these issues on Bugzilla, with "Fedora
Documentation" as the product and "installation-guide" as the component,
we could track the revisions in the customary Docs Project way.
Reporting issues by email alone means they are more likely to be forgotten.
Thanks,
Christopher

Note
Only one desktop environment can be selected at install time. To install
additional environments once Fedora is installed, use the *Software*
tool or the |yum groupinstall| command.
I do not recall a previous mention of yum in this guide. We who are
familiar with Fedora know yum as the command line system software tool
that accompanies Fedora. Perhaps we need to elaborate with a footnote,
about yum and where to fetch the yum documentation.

Hi Sam, welcome to the team.
I've sponsored your membership in the 'docs' FAS group. Now you can
participate in elections, go vote for a release name!
The table Jérôme linked to has a column that will lead you to the git
repo for the Guides. I think you'll get the hang of docbook pretty
quickly, but the hardest part IMO is writing the content and I suggest
you dive into that first. We can help you with the markup as needed; I'm
happy to help where I can, and that's true of many people.
Many of us hang out in #fedora-docs and more watch the mailing list.
I'm looking forward to working with you here and there.
