As with any Wiki project, '''reviewing the pages of others is another great help that won't take up too much of your time''' - checking for grammatical and formatting issues, ensuring that people are sourcing things properly, adding relevant information, and so on are all essential to the integrity of the Wiki.

'''If you have a little more time, there are plenty of articles that need to be written!''' Take a look at our [[Article Types]] and familiarise yourself with the ~~Style Guide~~[~~link~~], then pick a topic from the video list and get to it! We don't expect there to be a clean '1 video = 1 article' translation. Instead, the information from the videos should be combined with outside sources to contribute to articles about the incidents, entities, and themes discussed in the video. Please remember to update the video page with links to any articles you write, in order to help us avoid duplication. At this early stage of the Wiki, don't worry about creating stubs, or starting an article with the intention to allow yourself or someone else to finish it at a later date. Right now our main focus is on putting pen to paper, and getting the Wiki populated.
