Articles for you to work on
editHi, Vancar. There is a virtually endless amount of articles on Wikipedia that need to be expanded, cleaned up, properly sourced, or wikified. The problem many people have is, where does one begin? It's a good question. I would suggest first figuring out your area(s) of interest or expertise. Once you know the places where you can be most helpful there are resources on Wikipedia that can help direct you to articles that need work. For instance, there are groups of Wikipedia users who focus on particular areas, forming groups like portals and WikiProjects. So, for instance, if you were interested in architecture, you could check out Portal:Architecture or Wikipedia:WikiProject Architecture and you would find a list of needy architecture-related articles. For your convenience, here is a directory of all portals and a list of all WikiProjects. Good luck, DLandTALK 05:14, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
