==How YOU Can Make A Big Difference In Only 10 Minutes==
==Halachipedia Training==
# The most useful job that anyone can do is organize pages. '''Please''' try this for 10 minutes, no more, and I'm sure it'll make a big difference (Be'ezrat Hashem). Yashar Koach!
Every edit or contribution you do makes a tremendous difference for the site as a whole and benefits people all over the world all the time. Yashar Koach or Chazak Ubaruch!
# Here's an outline for how to use those 10 minutes most effectively:
===Editing with Visual Editor or Edit Source===
## If you don't already have one, make a user account [[#Step_1:_Become_a_user]] (30 sec)
{|
## If you don't already know, learn the basics of how to edit a page: [[#Step_2:_Learn_how_to_edit]] (2 min)
|-
## Pick a page to work on: [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Okay]] (30 sec)
| {{#ev:youtube|C4_dXml1Wj0|480}} ||
## Read the page (3 min)
#After you [[#Step_1:_Become_a_user|made an account]] you can learn how to edit pages.
## Think about the logical order of the topic and reorder the sections (1 min)
# Go to any page. Click on the edit tab, edit the content, and then save it.
## Create sections that are missing (and leave them blank) (1 min)
# Alternatively, you can click the edit source tab, edit, and then save.
## Mark the page's status (see [[#Page Classification]]) (1 min)
|}
## Categorize the page (see [[#How To Categorize A Page]]). (1 min)
===Editing Style: Parts of the Halachipedia Page===
{|
|-
|
#The top of each page should include a short description of the page as well as a picture.
#Sections and subsections should be kept tight to specific topics with ideally 2-4 halacha's. It is preferable to break up a large section into multiple subsections than to have one large one.
#At the bottom of every page to render the sources type <references/> or {{Reflist}}
#On the bottom of the page you can categorize the page. For more info on that see [[#How To Categorize A Page]].

===Editing Style: Closer Look at Halachipedia Footnotes===
{|
|-
| {{#ev:youtube|5XrY3mVCKdE}} ||
#Every footnote has accurate and specific sources. It should have at least one. Please do not write a halacha without a source, it will be removed.
#The footnotes can either be just a source or can be a sentence up to 3 paragraphs of description.
# You must look up the sources inside. If you do not look up a source in the primary source, you must quote the secondary source in which you saw it quoted.
