Wikipedia's forgotten gems
[edit]You see the big green crystal there? You could spend years polishing that, and it wouldn’t be worth much at all. The smaller crystals are much more valuable. And there may even be some deeper inside, which we can’t see, that are even more precious …

Polish rough gems on Wikipedia
[edit]Try:
- Rephrasing or copy-editing to improve grammar or more accurately represent the sources
- Correcting inaccuracies, while keeping the rest of the content intact
- Merging or moving the content to a more relevant existing article, or splitting the content to an entirely new article
- Adding other points of views to the existing points of view to make the article more balanced
- Requesting a citation by adding the {{citation needed}} tag, or adding any other Template:Inline tags as appropriate
- Doing a quick search for sources and adding a citation yourself
- Adding appropriate cleanup tags to sections you cannot fix yourself
- Repair a dead link if a new URL for the page or an archive of the old one can be located
- Merging the entire article into another article with the original article turned into a redirect as described at performing a merge
- Fixing errors in wikitext code or formatting
