Thanks for your report!

"Software & Updates" is an item in the "Ubuntu Software" menu; please
see the attached screenshot. The problem with the instruction is that it
does not mention that.

Thanks also for your offer to help with the edit! While I'll likely
handle this particular issue, we do look for people who help maintain
the desktop guide. I mentioned it briefly in this message to the ubuntu-
doc mailing list:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2018-April/020590.html

Please let us know if you are interested in joining the team.

Title:
   The Documentation at the "Ubuntu Desktop Guide/Install & remove
  software/Add a PPA" gives non-existent instructions

Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The Documentation at the "Ubuntu Desktop Guide/Install & remove
  software/Add a PPA" gives non-existent instructions:

  The guide for PPA addition says

  1. On the PPA's overview page, look for the heading ...... (not the point)
  2. Click the Ubuntu Software icon ..... (not the point)
  3. When Ubuntu Software launches, click Software & Updates [DOES NOT EXIST]
  4. Switch to the Other Software tab. ['OTHER SOFTWARES' TAB DOES NOT EXIST]

  Same is the issue for Adding Software Repositories, and others on the
  page.

  This is also available online at https://help.ubuntu.com/stable
  /ubuntu-help/addremove-ppa.html

  Please feel free to contact me for further info.
  I'd like it if given a chance to help edit the documentation.

  
  Thank You.
