I guess I have to put something here. Murus has used Wikipedia since its inception and made random edits without registering. So, Murus is a voracious Wikipedia reader and kinda eclectic editor. For Murus, participating in Wikipedia is a tool of active learning and brain muscle flexing. Every edit requires research and it sure beats newspaper reading and watching the zombie box.
You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)
Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.
Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.
Make no mistake, Murus is pulling for you! Murus (talk · contribs · deleted · count · AfD · logs · block log · lu · rfar · spi)
