Yotrages Good day and thank you for the question. There are many ways to contribute to Wikipedia. I do suggest you to take a short (about 90mins) program - see WP:TWA as they program will provide you the fundamental guidelines of Wikipedia so when you edit you would know what, how to edit whereby you adhere to the Wikipedia guidelines (very important). Once you have done so you can start editing. You can check out WP:Maintenance for areas that you are interested in. If you till encounter edit issues after you have complete the TWA then you can go to WP:Teahouse for any assistances or you can pop back here for I am here to help. Be safe and best.
