Wikipedia is a free [[encyclopedia]], written [[Collaborative editing|collaboratively]] by the [[WP:Who writes Wikipedia|people who use it]]. Its {{#expr:{{formatnum:{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}|R}}/10^6 round2}} million articles can be [[wiki|edited by anyone]], and all changes are recorded in [[Help:Page history|article histories]]. For a more detailed account of the project, see '''[[WP:About|About Wikipedia]]'''.

===How you can contribute===
[[File:10 sharing book cover background.jpg|280px|right]]
 
'''[[WP:Be bold|Don't be afraid to edit]]''' – ''Anyone'' can edit almost every page, just find something that can be improved and make it better! You can [[WP:Articles_for_creation|create new articles]], or improve existing articles by adding [[Help:Introduction to editing with VisualEditor/1|content]], [[Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1|references]] and [[Help:Introduction to images with VisualEditor/1|images]], or correcting spelling, grammar and readability. If you wish to add new facts, please try to provide [[Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1|reliable references]] so they may be [[WP:Verifiability|verified]]. Remember, you can't break Wikipedia; all edits can be fixed or improved later. So go ahead, edit an article and help make Wikipedia the best information source on the Internet!
 
'''[[WP:Talk page guidelines|Suggest improvements]]''' – Each article also has a '[[Help:Introduction_to_talk_pages/1|Talk page]]', where you can suggest improvements and corrections to the article.
 
'''[[wmf:Fundraising|Donate]]''' – Wikipedia is free to use, but relies on donations and grants to do so. Please consider donating using the ''Donate to Wikipedia'' link on the left to help with the project's running costs and expansion.
 
 
===Why not try out the editor right now?===
You can test out how editing feels now, by editing one of the "sandbox" test pages below.

or
{{clickable button 2|url=http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=WP:Sandbox&action=edit|Edit source code}}
 
Just type some text and '''{{int:savearticle}}''' when you're happy with the way it looks.

You're welcome to edit anonymously, but there are many [[WP:Why create an account?|benefits of registering an account]].
