 * Add a few citations to an article

 * Add notable scholarship and resources to the 'See also' section of an article
 * Suggest revisions and point to sources on the talk page

''If you have thirty minutes each week. . .''

 * Restructure a pre-exisiting article (make sure to suggest your revisions on the talk page first!)

Article worklist
''Alongside each biography of an academic, we've suggested a few field-specific articles and general interest, vital articles to incorporate relevant scholarship into. Vital articles are lists of subjects for which the English Wikipedia should have corresponding featured-class articles. They serve as centralized watchlists to track the quality status of Wikipedia's most important articles and to give editors guidance on which articles to prioritize for improvement.'''
