'''Provide Content'''
 
 
 
As an experiment in history by the people, all logged on users with data or documents and citations to share can create entries, or edit, add to, and improve any entry except those with a named author or curator, or those closed to protect their content. Practice editing in the [[OutHistory:Sandbox|Sandbox]].

'''Fill in Stubs and Research Requests'''
 
 
 
All users can search: [[:Category:Stub Categories|Stub Categories]] (a list of all categories for which there is no or little content) and [[:Category:Stub|Stub Articles]], and begin to fill in the data and citations. All users can also view the category [[:Category:Research Requests|Research Requests]] to fill in missing information.
