I am still learning how to edit Wikipedia and how best to contribute. At the moment, my priorities lie in making Wikipedia more accessible for other disabled people. This means adding alt text to images where I can, and eventually I will figure out how to help with articles read out loud. I would also like to help make information that is currently language-divided on Wikipedia to be translated and accessible.

Resources I Use

[edit]

These are primarily here for my own convenient reference. I do use other tools, but these are ones I use very often:

Wikipedia: Manual of style for alternative text for images
This is for learning how to write alt text and format it for Wikipedia.
Tool: For Translation of Webpages
I believe this runs through Google translate but is still functional despite Google (the company) no longer supporting translation of websites except through their own browser. This tool allows for anyone on any browser to input a URL and access an automatic translation.
Archive.org
This is a general archive resource which contains books, newspapers, photos, recordings. It is free.
