Vorlage:Shortcut The Community Portal is the central place to find out what's happening on Wikipedia. Learn what tasks need to be done, what groups can be joined, and get or post news about recent events or current activities. See the help page for documentation, or ask a question for assistance. The Village pump is Wikipedia's main discussion forum; there are separate sections covering News, Policy, Technical, Proposals, Assistance, and Miscellaneous topics.

Community bulletin board Post your Wikipedia related news and announcements here! New portals, collaborations, and wikiprojects seeking contributors. New initiatives, proposals, discussions, or article drives, and current maintenance backlogs.

To do lists Wikipedia is, by number of articles, the largest encyclopedia ever to exist. However, that comes at a cost: many are stubs, or otherwise need attention. If you like, go ahead, be bold, and jump right in. If you aren't ready to fly solo, you can participate in a Collaboration.

Things to do Help update to the new references format. Respond to a request for comment. Can you draw or take pictures? Make a requested image. Peer review, assess, or give feedback on some articles, especially those recently revised. Offer your thoughts and ideas on proposed policies. Can you use GIS tools? Help make requested maps. Can you speak another language? There are articles that need translation into English. Would you like to respond to more requests? Comment on the wisdom of new bot proposals. Can you code? Code a useful bot or update an offline report. Proofread a finished translation. Let SuggestBot suggest pages for you to improve.

Vorlage:Wikipedia:Community Portal/Opentask Not sure where to report a certain type of problem with article content? If it exists, it's probably listed at Wikipedia:Maintenance.

Collaborations To improve the quality of articles which are short or lacking in detail, Wikipedia's community organizes collaborations to expand articles.

Other collaborations Active improvement teams Cleaning department Cleanup Taskforce Counter-Vandalism Unit Spam fighting team Categorization projects Countering systemic bias Encyclopedic Standards Version 1.0 Maintenance Help clear up the backlog of articles to be wikified! Wikification is the process of making an article conform to the guide to layout and Manual of Style. This involves formatting, links, sections, and checking for other things such as copyright violations and references. If necessary, you may propose it for deletion. Wikification is an easy way to improve Wikipedia! WikiProjects WikiProjects are ongoing team efforts to improve articles having to do with a particular subject, and to manage the logistics of that topic. Hundreds exist — examine the master list to find one that interests you. They are separate from, though may work with, Collaborations. Language translation Wikipedia is not just in English! Versions exist in many different languages. To fill in some of the English Wikipedia's gaps, we translate articles from other languages into English. You can view a list of articles that need translation from any language, or, in a few cases, by only one language (this is only available for the more popular languages).

Guidelines, help, and resources Wikipedia has hundreds of departments staffed by a small army of volunteers. Here are some of the most general; for more specific departments, check the appropriate page below. See also the Wikipedia department directory.
