There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
  Perform maintenance tasks
           
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates
  Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

A cheeseburger for you![edit]

For undoing vandalism in Obesity in the United Kingdom. I appreciate your good work and keep it up! ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus (talk to me) 11:45, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You may install Twinkle, a good automated tool for dealing with vandalism and maintenance tasks. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus (talk to me) 11:50, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Abelmoschus Esculentus: thank you for letting me know! Twinkle makes things much easier it seems :) Reveniens (talk) 12:04, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Are you focusing on RCP (recent changes patrol) here? If you get enough experience, you can request for rollback permission which makes reverting vandalism easier. Having rollback can also let you use automated tools such as Huggle (which is a great software and I recommend you use it too :P). If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and have a good day. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus (talk to me) 12:08, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Abelmoschus Esculentus: yeah, I've seen Huggle around but unfortunately, I require rollback permission for it :(, for now yes, just RCP Reveniens (talk) 12:13, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Well Huggle has a read-only mode which can be accessed by anyone without rollback permission. I use Huggle to view recent changes quickly and revert vandalism using Twinkle before being granted rollback. Just a suggestion. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus (talk to me) 12:28, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Abelmoschus Esculentus: oh, thanks for the advice, I'll give Huggle a try then. :) Reveniens (talk) 12:31, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
