Editing Wikipedia
You can "just do it"!
Wikipedia just celebrated it's 25th anniversary, but it's never too late to get started editing and contributing. Remember, the slogan is "The free encyclopedia that anyone can edit".
It can seem intimidating. If you bite off a big project right away you might get reverted, or scolded by one of the "big wig editors" who like to act as gatekeepers. But really they're more like strict librarian chihuahuas, they just want to keep their information neat.
Think if it this way, if you post something on Twitter, it lasts for a day. Post someting on Wikipedia and it could be there for years, plus you're helping all of humanity...

“We don’t deserve Wikipedia. It’s the hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy in real life, but also totally free.”

“I think we take the humble Wikipedia a little for granted. She doesn't get the love she deserves, and so this is my feeble attempt to rectify that. She's my favourite internet wormhole; I could spend days spiralling down into her deep dark crevices... ok, this is beginning to sound creepy... My point is that my love for Wikipedia runs so deep that it feels like a betrayal not to memorialise it on”

“It drives my girlfriend insane because anytime we try to watch anything on TV I have a carnal urge to understand every actors Early Life. Where else are you going to find it out?”
