I suggest that you create a wiki account for yourself and start editing the
wiki pages. For the website, you can create an account on Salsa, then clone
the website repository [1], make the changes and open a pull request.

I'm currently working on most Debian Ports issues more or less alone and I
cannot take the additional burden to work on the website as well, I need
people to help me with these efforts. So, please knock yourself out.
