Just started fooling around, and was looking for some easy stuff to learn the system with. I've got a book on my desk, "The Fox in the Henhouse: How Privatization Threatens Democracy" by Si Kahn and Elizabeth Minnich. I noticed that it isn't mentioned on Si Kahn's page. Elizabeth Minnich isn't found.
So how to start? First, conventions for titles, also ISBN reference, then thoughts on who much to summarize the book. Then should I think about categories?
So, what might be intesting work with a few hours per week? I'm not a subject expert in any area, but have a good background, and a reasonable ability to write. Neutrality and encyclopedic style might be a bit more work to reach that stage of quality, but I may be willing to take a shot.
I've been looking around, and find the new user information way too detailed for general use. (You REALLY need this stuff cut to a bare minimum. I.E. How to make simple edits, (A type or two of common edit needs, 'along with' a link to the list needing this kind of editing.) How to author a simple article. (Perhaps with a template of common tags already loaded, such as review requested, wikify, stub, etc. Indicate in comments what would justify taking out the common indicators such as cleanup spelling, cleanup links, etc.)
This looks like it might be fone for a bit of time a week, but you need to cut the learning time down to about 15-30 minutes for the first task the user is going to do, 5-10 minutes would be much better.
