User blog comment:Merlaa/How much do we need to Contribute?/@comment-4623180-20120828154409

Don't worry, that's only normal. If you're really motivated, you'll overcome your uncertainty and your mind will start blossoming with bright ideas as to how you can contribute to the Wiki.

You see, it's not about editing. It's hard to fix what's already been fixed, but innovating! Then again you could say it's hard to innovate something that's already innovative.

Secondly, it's NOT an obligation to get to the leaderboards. In fact we discourage thinking about that, we don't recognise users by the figures, but the effort and love they put into the Wiki. I mean, since I came to this Wiki, the leaderboard has barely fluctuated. The same users who haven't been active for almost a year are still on there. It shows how we've phased out emphasis on the leaderboard (i.e. removing links from top navigation). I am guilty of having thought before being at the top of the leaderboard means being the best in the Wiki. I was very wrong.

All we ask is for you to be yourself... you have to find the best of what you have got to offer and the point you made this post shows there is something.. at least I've found this to be the case. You've bothered to come on here and are in search for it, you just need to search deep.. or just wait for it to surface. Searching too hard can make you uncertain what it is you really want so perhaps it will come naturally. You will become more confident and won't be afraid of criticism or insignificance.

Well that's my little pep speech.

P.S. Have you viewed "Browse "? You may discover some things to do in here.
