Where to begin

• If you need help editing, you could start with Help:Editing or the tutorial.
• Practice editing at the sandbox, a page dedicated to practice editing.
• Familiarize yourself with the wiki's official policies. There aren't many, and they're brief, but it is important that you know them- you may be blocked from editing for consistent rule-breaking!

How to help out

• If you want to help but you're not sure where to start, try improving the various stub articles by adding content.
• Another helpful activity would be to check the list of wanted pages for frequently linked-to articles that don't exist yet.
• To follow the changes to this wiki, and to look out for new users and edits use recent changes.
• You can find a list of useful templates on Category:Templates, some of which are documented on NHK World Wiki:Templates.

Want to discuss stuff?

• If you want to discuss anything specific to an article, you can use the talk page for that article.
• For discussions about the site itself, use NHK World Wiki talk:Community Portal.

NOTE: The Forums are no longer operational.

Things to do

• Add pages on programs and people. You can find a list of programs on NHK's website: http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/english/tv/program_a-z/index.html

Useful activities Help expand some article stubs. Locate and mark pages that need expanding as article stubs. Create links to some orphaned pages. Upload and add some images! Visit Special:Upload. Add them to a category too, like [[Category:Images]]. Write a new article that's on the wanted list! Fix any double redirects by redirecting the first page to the third page. Check for broken redirects and either mark them for deletion or find a more appropriate target. Consider splitting up very long pages into different pages or subpages. Create some links on dead end pages.
