Wikipedia:Random pages test

The Random Pages Test is a quick means of creating a side-project for bored Wikipedians or for those interested in research.

Follow the steps to create a Random Pages Test:

1. Choose any number ( 1–10 ). Ten is the preference of most.
2. Click Special:Random, then repeat many times, recording which articles were selected.
3. If applicable, improve the selected articles to a satisfying level of encyclopedic quality.
4. Keep track of progress in a subpage in your userspace. (For help on using subpages, go to Wikipedia:Subpages)
5. When all selected articles are improved to a satisfying degree, repeat.
