Hello folks,
this is a suggestion to encourage more edits. It is both a topic for every of our projects but also of most of the foundation projects. So I post it here at first and will welcome everyone to carry it to the single projects.
On the home page of our projects for example en-wp we have the column "Did you know..." where we feature the new created articles. The idea is to create a column where we put in articles that does not exist or that are stubs and should be improved.
The column look like:
Can you tell us about ... * the pianist [[Veryan Weston]] * the [[Kansas City Philamonics]] * the bird [[Black-eared Seedeater]]
etc.
The column should be at a prominant place so that every visitor can see it. The requested articles can be selected by multiple ways, the community can discuss the way and establish a procedure. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Veryan_Weston&action=edit&redlink=1
