| == I need help '''finding''' an article==
| |
| There is a search box in the upper-right corner of every page with the word "Search" in it. Just type what you are looking for in there and then press {{key press|enter}}. See '''[[Help:Searching]]''' for more details.
| |
| | |
| Most pages are grouped together with similar articles via categories. You can find these links at the bottom of the page. For instance, this page is within the '''[[:Category:Help|help]]''' category. Clicking on this link will take you to a list of all the other help pages.

| |
| == I want to '''edit''' an article==
| |
| | |
| Contributing is easy: see '''[[Help:Introduction to editing|how to edit a page]]'''. You can use the [[Help:Editing|editing cheatsheet]] to learn how to use basic wiki markup, as well as how to create and move pages. You can practice editing by experimenting on your [[Special:MyPage|user page]].
| |
| | |
| Be bold in improving articles! We'd rather that you create an article with basic content (even without wiki formatting) than not having an article at all.

| |
| == I want to '''report a problem''' with an article ==
| |
| If you spot a problem with an article, '''''you''''' can fix it directly, by clicking on the "Edit" link at the beginning of that page.
| |
| | |
| If you don't feel ready to fix the article yourself, please post a message on the article's '''[[GoArch:Policies#Talk pages|talk page]]'''. This will bring the matter to the attention of others who work on that article. There is a "Talk" link at the top of ''every'' article page.

| |
| == I want to '''create a new article''' or '''upload media''' ==
| |
| Perform a search first to make sire that an article doesn't already exist that covers your topic already. If it already exists, you can improve it instead of creating a new article. If one doesn't exist or is distinctly different, then feel free to [[Help:Editing#Creating a page|create it]].
| |
| | |
| Once you have created an article, check the [[GoArch:Style guide|style guide]] for guidance on how to format it.
| |

| == Where can I help? ==
| |
| You are welcome and encouraged to edit and improve any incomplete page in the Archive. If you have a suggestion for a change that might affect a large number of pages, discuss it first on that article's Discussion page, or on the [[GoArch_talk:Community portal|community portal]] first.
| |
| | |
| Regular editors review and monitor the [[Special:RecentChanges|most recent edits]] from all users in order to maintain the quality of the Archive. These editors will see questions asked on talk pages and will assist with your queries.
