• [X] I had searched in the issues and found no similar feature requirement.

Description

Currently our English doc quality is not so good:

• We have tons of tense, formatting, punctuation, etc. errors and inconsistency of letter case usage in docs.
• Some sentences are ambiguous, misleading or hard to understand.
• We need to avoid passive voice in doc writing.
• Markdown docs are badly formatted.

Since @zhongjiajie has already migrated all docs from website repo to main repo, and we have spotless to help with the markdown formatting #11384, it's high time that we refactored the docs.

Besides, we need a guideline for DS English docs writing, see: #11161

related: #6535

I think we better find some way to auto-fix those issues,

Markdown docs are badly formatted

I am not sure how spotless auto-fix this, but I am sure there are some of the docs can not be auto fix, like we have HTML style IMG format, beside the auto-fix tool, maybe we also need a checker for our markdown doc and other CI which I already mention in #6535

@zhongjiajie Thanks for the information, I will take a look at the doc checker you mentioned above : )

BTW, spotless fixes markdown using Flexmark.

I like this feature, like the auto-fix behavior, but I think we should find out all bad case formats too. I think the second is even more important

Agree, it would be better if those embedded stuff in markdown such as html code fragments could be fixed or at least get checked.

@zhongjiajie Just for clarification, for tense, formatting, punctuation, etc. errors and inconsistency of letter case usage, I will fix them manually, there is no way for fixing those stuff automatically. Only use spotless for markdown formatting.

Yeah, Of cause , but other things like a blank line, HTML syntax img, max cols in each line should be auto-fix if it can
