How to Help

[edit]
  1. Find an article to work on. Articles are now sorted by date (instead of alphabetics). Many editors choose to work on the oldest articles first, so that articles will not sit around too long in the category. It should be relatively easy to sort an article even without much experience in Wikipedia editing.
  2. Check to see if the article contains a copyright violation. There are a few red flags that indicate text was probably illegally copied into Wikipedia - this actually happens quite frequently. User:Kjkolb/Copyvio has a quick guide and you may also like to use copyscape.com for finding copyright violations. Instructions for reporting violations are at Wikipedia:Copyright problems.
  3. Check to see if another article exists on the subject. If so, then you can consider merging that article to the original.
  4. Find sources if none are cited in the article. Make full use of Google Books, Google News, Google Scholar, Google Web, JSTOR, LexisNexis, and any other search tools that you may have access to. Use variations on the article's title and other keywords from the article. The {{find}} template could be useful in this regard.
  5. Sort! You can mainly use common sense, but adhering to the guidelines of WP:BIO, WP:CORP, WP:BAND (from where the most frequent violations come from), and other notability criteria.
    1. If the article meets notability requirements, or if the article simply needs expanding, remove the notability or importance tag and replace it with an appropriate tag. If not, the article might need to be deleted. Please use deletion as a last resort.
    2. If the article meets speedy deletion requirements, add the appropriate db tag.
    3. If the article should undeniably be deleted, add {{subst:prod|Your-reason-here}}, replacing "Your-reason-here" with an appropriate reason.
    4. If the article might encounter some controversy when being deleted, add {{subst:afd1}} and then proceed to follow the steps to file an AfD discussion.
    5. Do not remove the notability/importance tags during one of the above deletion procedures.
    6. If an article is kept as the result of an AfD discussion, the {{notability}} tag should be removed. {{importance}} tags indicate that some rewriting of the article is required and should not be removed until that has been done. However, if the result is "no consensus", retain all tags, as the issue is not decided.
  6. Enhance your edit summary As soon as you are done sorting, add to your edit summary:
Sorted as part of the co-operation between the [[WP:COMICS|Comics]] & [[WP:WPNN|Notability]] wikiprojects!
