 ## 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.
+
+* 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][].
