-You may also wish to visit [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents/Editing_Wikipedia this page on Wikipedia] which is more helpful, although some of the information there is specific to Wikipedia, especially with regard to editorial policies.

-=== Getting Started ===
-Get started by reading this [[Help:Creating a Page|page]].
-Then, either start creating content, or look at some current categories or stubs that need help:
 ==== Articles by Category ====
-A list of current categories can be found [[:Special:Categories|here]].
-A list of unused categories can be found [[:Special:UnusedCategories|here]]. Please feel free to add appropriate pages to these categories. They will automatically move to the [[:Special:Categories|ordinary categories]] page.
-A hierarchical list of categories (current and unused) can be found [[:Help:Contents|here]].
-==== Stubs ====
+{| class="wikitable"
-A stub is an article that needs a lot of development. You can either [[:Help:Find or fix a stub| read about finding and fixing stubs]] or you can peruse a [[:Category:Stub | list of stubs]] to see if there are any you would like to work on.
