== How to proceed ==
 
There is currently a need for volunteers to edit the wiki. This is a position where anyone wanting to contribute to the ReactOS community is welcome to join. All it takes to edit the wiki is to [[Special:UserLogin|create an account]]. After creating an account, take the time to learn [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:How to edit a page|how to edit a page]].
 
 
If you are not sure what to do, here are a few things to get you started:
 
# Mark articles needing changes with the appropriate Template flag (e.g., <nowiki>{{del}}, {{outdated}}, {{stub}}, etc.</nowiki>).
 
# Make sure pages have a similar style and layout -- similar use of headings, emphasis, code, and so on.
 
# Correct spelling, grammar, and language use; try to make it more professional sounding.
 
# Make the text concise and readable; remove irrelevant links and content.

If you do not have the time to do the cleanup yourself, simply marking articles as needing cleanup using one of the [http://www.reactos.org/wiki/Special:AllPages&namespace=10 Templates] can be helpful.

=== Pages with obsolete content (outdated) ===
 
 
* [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Del|Obsolete pages]] - Pages that are no longer needed.
 
* [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Outdated|Outdated pages]] - Pages that need updated information to reflect the current status.
 
* [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Stub|Pages to expand]] - Pages that need more information.
 
* [[Special:LonelyPages|Orphaned pages]] - Pages that are not linked anywhere, making them inaccessible except through a search.
 
* [[Special:UncategorizedPages|Uncategorized pages]] - Pages that are not in any categories.
 
 
 
== The Plan ==
 
The plan is to make the wiki to a place where you can find information about ReactOS development.
 
 
 
=== Phase 1 ===
 
* Mark all pages that don't belong to the wiki as <nowiki>{{del}}</nowiki>
 
* Merge articles that cover the same area together
 
* Move structures, APIs, stuff for clean room reverse engineering to [[Techwiki]]
 
 
 
=== Phase 2 ===
 
* Review existing articles.
 
* Link existing articles in articles where is makes sense, to present a flow in information search.
 
* Use [[#List of articles sorted by relevance|List of articles sorted by relevance]] to add notes about work that has to be done. The article's discussion page may also be used.
 
 
 
=== Phase 3 ===
 
* Remove orphaned pages
 
* Add supplementary pages that would provide a better understanding
