 * Volunteer Project


 * Goal: Bring in volunteers and let them see what they can do in a single location or topic that they're interested in.
 * Steps to Achieve:


 * Make it easier to find pages that need help, such as Stub articles and "Wanted" pages. Suggestions:


 * Add a link to the Stub types articles and the Wanted Pages article on the "Things to do" page
 * Find a way to get all the needs for one locality or topic on the same page
 * Bring in moderators - make it one of their responsibilities to create a "Things to Do" page for each locality
 * Assignments:
 * Caroline - look for a way to link to the "Wanted" page or Stub page for a specific locality (State)
 * Lee - work with reporting in this area
 * Team - We all need to experiment with how to identify the pages and get them where they can be found easily. This is going to take more brainstorming and experimenting
