===How you can contribute===
'''Don't be afraid to edit''' – <em>Anyone</em> can edit almost every page; just find something that can be improved and make it better! You can add content, upload free-to-use images, correct spelling and grammar mistakes, improve prose to make it more readable, or help with any number of other tasks. It's normal for new contributors to feel a little overwhelmed by all of our policies, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first; it's fine to use common sense as you edit, and if you accidentally mess something up, another editor can always fix or improve it later. So go ahead, edit an article and help make WikiCigar the world's best information source!

'''Suggest improvements''' – Each article also has a "Talk" page, where you can suggest improvements and corrections to the article.

'''Donate''' – WikiCigar is free to use and edited entirely by volunteers, but it relies on donations to keep the servers running. Please consider donating to help fund theproject's maintenance and development costs.

===Why not try out the editor right now?===
You can test out how editing feels by editing one of the "sandbox" test pages below:

{{If IP
|{{Clickable button 2|Help:Introduction/IP sandbox|Edit page visually}} or {{Clickable button 2|Help:Introduction/IP sandbox|Edit using wiki markup}}
|{{Clickable button 2|url=https://wikicigar.org/index.php?title=Special:MyPage/Sample_page&veaction=edit&preload=Help:Introduction/main_sandbox&summary=Creating%20sandbox|Edit page visually}} or {{Clickable button 2|url=https://wikicigar.org/index.php?title=Special:MyPage/Sample_page&action=edit&preload=Help:Introduction/main_sandbox/preload&summary=Creating%20sandbox&editintro=Help:Introduction/main_sandbox/preload/editintro|Edit using wiki markup}}
}}

Just type some text and click {{Button|{{int:Publishpage}}|bgcolor2=#BBE}} when you're happy with the way it looks. Don't worry about breaking anything; these pages are open areas for experimentation.
