For translation, you could start at po/README. That's mostly UI translation. I think some team actually started document translation too [1], but I don't know the status.
For creating/updating documents in English, I think our documents can use some improvements. Just pick one document under Documentation directory, read it and see if you can understand it (if not we probably need to rephrase or reorganize a bit, sometimes a lot). I'm not so sure about creating new documents. That's usually done when a new feature/command is added.
[1] The ground work for that seems done in 3d5b568f1a (Documentation/Makefile add optional targets for l10n, 2019-01-07)
