I want to contribute to PardusWiki! What should I do?
There are many ways to contribute. Below, some of the best ideas that you can achieve with a small amount of effort are listed.
Create New Pages
Especially, if internal links in current pages points to an empty page, you can fill them up.
Blue (or violet, if you have visited before) links are current pages. Red (or orange, if you have visited before) links are the pages that do not exist for now. It is preassumed that the person who put the link to that page thought there was information about the topic. This can be a bad idea, of course; and maybe the link should be deleted. It's also possible that there may be a typo or the correct name of the link may not be known by the previous editor. That's why, you can correct this link, and/or create a redirection to the page. If you think there should a page at the redirected site, go ahead and start writing!
While searching for the red links, you can look at the demanded pages list(?) and select one which you think you know about it. (Please take a look at the "Where should I start" part)
Please, read the recommendations about when and how a new page should be written (or not written): My First Contributions.
