Writing for Wikipedia

by Aurora on May 12, 2006

Improve your writing and editing skills and help other people in the process: write for Wikipedia. Wikipedia is user edited, meaning anyone under the sun can edit or change an article. While this results in some vandalism, Wikipedia is by nature self-correcting. It is an excellent place for both experienced and aspiring writers all over the world to do some community service and hone their craft.

Free information is integral to our progress as people, but there’s no reason it has to be bad. If you’re there and see a mistake, simply edit it and move on. And though you’re encouraged to sign up, you can also submit anonymously http://www.wikipedia.com/

Do the world a favor and edit once in awhile. It doesn’t cost you anything but a small piece of time. And it could win you something-check out Wikinews’ writing contest at the Wiki News Site.
