Wikipedia is, by number of articles, [[Wikipedia:Size comparisons|the largest encyclopedia]] ever to exist. However, many articles are [[Wikipedia:Stub|stubs]], or otherwise need attention. If you like, go ahead, [[Wikipedia:Be bold in updating pages|be '''bold''']], and jump right in. If you are not ready to fly solo, you can participate in a [[#Collaborations|Collaboration]].
 
-
 
-
=== Things to do ===
 
-
* Respond to a [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment|request for comment]], [[Wikipedia:Wikiquette alerts|Wikiquette alert]] or provide a [[Wikipedia:Third opinion|third opinion]].

==== 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 '''[[Wikipedia:Translation|translate articles from other languages into English]]'''. You can view a [[Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English|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).
