What can I work on?

There are a number of ways you contribute to Wikipedia. You can create or enhance Wikipedia articles, add external links, verify and update citations, provide resources to help those writing articles, and assist with research.

Articles needing citation or authority control

Articles needing expansion, updating, and/or cleanup

Articles needing creation

If you don't have time to create a full article make sure you mark it as a stub. You can also help out by categorizing existing stub articles.
