Have you ever wanted to start editing #Wikipedia, but got overwhelmed or felt like you didn't know where to start? Every time I encourage people to start editing, I hear that, so I'm trying to help.

Several years ago I did some editing. My edits were primarily spelling, dates, grammar, etc. Mostly simple stuff. This was back in the early days of Wikipedia.
From watching this video, I can see how much Wikipedia has changed and improved.
I'm not really interested in becoming an editor but am keen to know what the process and procedures are.
