This is a resource provided by the Libertarian Party to its members and the general public.
=<FONT color="#0D0046">'''You Can Help!'''</FONT>=
*Find an identified needed article with a [[David Nolan|red link]], click '''<U>[[Special:Wantedpages|here]]</U>''' for a list of missing but linked to articles, or create your article as shown below.<!--[[{{PAGENAME}}#How_to_Help|as shown below]].-->


First, create an account by going [[Special:Userlogin|'''HERE''']].
Check your state party article.  Is it up to date?  Do you know information about its history or some of its past chairs, officers, and the like that can be added?  Do you have information on a topic listed [[LPedia:List of Lists|on one of these lists]]?  Can you think of things to add to one of those lists?


To improve, update, or correct an article, sign in and click on the article's <FONT style="border: 1px #0F0F00 solid; background: #FFFFEF;">'''edit'''</FONT> tab at the top of the page.  You can click on the <FONT style="border: 1px #0F0F00 solid; background: #FFFFEF;">'''Show preview'''</FONT> button to test your revision and press <FONT style="border: 1px #0F0F00 solid; background: #FFFFEF;">'''Save page'''</FONT> button when you are finished with it.
You can also:
*Refine an article [[:Category:Stubs|stub]] into something more complete,
*Update one of [[:Category:Possibly Obsolete|these]] articles,
*Or simply tidy up an article in [[:Category:Cleanup|this]] category.
</DIV>  


To create a new article, simply add the name of the page that you would like to create to your browser's address bar.  If the title contains two or more words, add an underscore instead of a space.  For example, if an article for current national chair '''Bill Redpath''' did not already exist, you could create it by typing:
<!-- ******************************************************************* -->
<DIV style="border:solid #0D0046 1px; background:#FFFFFF; padding:5px 5px 5px 5px; text-align:left;margin-top:5px;">


    ht<B></B>tp://www.lpedia.org/index.php/Bill_Redpath
=<FONT COLOR="#0D0046">'''How to Help'''</FONT>=


You would then see a page telling you that the article did not exist (unless it already exists, as is the case)Simply click on the <FONT style="border: 1px #0F0F00 solid; background: #FFFFEF;">'''edit'''</FONT> tab to create and save your entry as described above.
Go [[Help:How to Help|here]] for a crash course on simple wiki editing.  Don't be afraid to make a mess at first -- getting the information here is the hard partYou or someone else can tidy things up later.


If your editing skills aren't as good as you wish they were, note that you can improve the article later, and so can any other editor.
You can decorate your user page with Wikipedia-style [[LPedia:Userboxes|'''userboxes''']].
</DIV>


You can also create a user page in the form of User:''YourUserName'' to tell other editors about yourself and decorate it with  Wikipedia-style [[LPedia:Userboxes|'''userboxes''']].
