## How To Participate
You can report problems or help improve bitcoin.org by opening an issue or a [pull request](#working-with-github) on [GitHub](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.org). You can also help by [translating](#translation) bitcoin.org's text on [Transifex](https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/bitcoinorg/).
*Bitcoin.org needs volunteers like you!* Here are some ways you can help:
* "Watch" this repository to be notified of issues and Pull Requests
(PRs) that could use your attention. Scroll to the top of this page
and click the *Watch* button to get notifications by email and on your
GitHub home page.
Alternatively, email volunteer coordinator Dave Harding
<dave@dtrt.org> with a short list of your interests and skills, and
he'll email you when there's an issue or PR that could use your
attention.
* Help [write new documentation][] for the [developer
documentation pages][] or [upcoming full node page][], or **review [PRs
adding new documentation][].** You don't need to be a Bitcoin expert
to review a PR---these docs are written for non-experts, so we need to
know if non-experts find them confusing or incomplete. If you review a
PR and don't find any problems worth commenting about, leave a "Looks
Good To Me (LGTM)" comment.
* [Submit new wallets][] for the [Choose Your Wallet page][], or
help us [review wallet submissions][]. **Reviewers with Apple iOS
hardware especially needed**---email <dave@dtrt.org> to
be notified about iOS wallets needing review.
* [Translate Bitcoin.org into another language][] using [Transifex][] or
help review new and updated translations. **Translation coordinator
needed** to answer translator questions and help process
reviews---email <dave@dtrt.org> for details.
* Add Bitcoin events to the [events page][] either by [editing `_events.yml`][edit events]
according to the [event instructions][] or by filling in a [pre-made
events issue][].
* Help improve Bitcoin.org using your unique skills. We can always use
the help of writers, editors, graphic artists, web designers, and anyone
else to enhance Bitcoin.org's [current content][] or to add new
content. See the **list of [recommended starter projects][]** or email
volunteer coordinator Dave Harding <dave@dtrt.org> to start a
conversation about how you can help Bitcoin.org.
You can always report problems or help improve bitcoin.org by opening a [new issue][] or [pull request][] on [GitHub][].
