Is there a way that I can participate in updating the website? Perhaps a test development that can be revised by your team then posted?

You are already helping ;)

At the moment, it would be of limited value for you to spend a lot of time working on revisions, as you are probably not (yet) aware of policy changes (such as using "https" for all internal links, and redirecting feedback to the forum where we are able to respond in a timely manner). However, it is very useful that you have alerted us to problem pages so that they can be fixed.

Please do continue to make suggestions and tell us about errors that you find. If there are issues that require discussion, then this forum is a good place for that to happen. If they require escalating to the developer / QA team, then I can forward the issue to the QA mailing list, but in the first instance, reporting problems here on the forum is convenient, efficient and won't get lost under a pile of other emails.
