Dear Google Season of Docs Program Coordinator,

I hope this email finds you well. I am Rohit. I am writing to express my interest in participating in the Google Season of Docs as a technical writer for the Matplotlib Gallery Examples Indexing project. With my background in technical writing and experience contributing to projects such as CERN HSF and various Julia-based projects, I am confident that I can make a valuable contribution to this initiative.

I understand the importance of well-organized and accessible documentation, especially for a library as widely used as Matplotlib. The proposed project aims to improve the information architecture, usability, and discoverability of the example gallery, and I am excited about the opportunity to work on such a significant and impactful project.

My experience in information architecture, usability studies, knowledge management, and indexing/cataloging, combined with my teaching experience and familiarity with Matplotlib, makes me well-suited for this project. I am eager to apply my skills to audit the existing content, propose a comprehensive tagging scheme, and identify potential improvements for the example gallery. I would be grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the Google Season of Docs and work on the Matplotlib Gallery Examples Indexing project. I am excited to learn more about the application process and any additional requirements needed for participation.

Thank you for considering my interest in the Google Season of Docs. I am looking forward to the possibility of collaborating with the Matplotlib team and contributing to the success of the example gallery project. These are some of my merged PRs.

Best regards,

Rohit Singh Rathaur
