There are many different ways for you to contribute today. Wikipedia is the product of millions of individual contributions and every change that is made, no matter how small, makes a difference!
- Choose a suggestion from the list below. Write your username in the last column so different people don't work on the same page during the edit-a-thon. After the edit-a-thon anyone is able to edit any page.
- Use Australian English and spelling. If you are editing a page about an Indigenous artist, you may use words in the appropriate Indigenous language if you are confident the word is correct.
- See also the Helpful links under the artist list for more guidance.
