Consider this random new contributor's experience:

1. Go to https://www.debian.org/, click on "Get Involved, Contribute"
2. Read https://www.debian.org/devel/join/, points you to "WNPP"


Of course, this is my opinion, but it's debian's primary journey from
the homepage.

agree, it's pretty bad journey. Steps 1 and 2 should point to a wiki
page, the package tracker and/or the bts as ways to contribute for newcomers.

What wiki page?

https://wiki.debian.org/HelpDebian is the closest i have found so
far. it is lacking in specific suggestions, but seems to tick some of
the right boxes, what do you think?

My 2 cents on where newcomers should go:

https://salsa.debian.org/explore/projects?sort=stars_desc
https://salsa.debian.org/explore/groups?sort=created_asc

What would that achieve?
