User:Theonesean/sandbox/Read Wikipedia

In my work at the Teahouse and Article for creation, I deal with new users a lot. As I've found, a lot of our editors are readers who just saw an article that they wanted to fix, or wanted to make an article where they saw a need. I'd say most editors started out as readers.

My advice to you is simply to, once in a while, take a break from your labors and get absorbed reading an article. Wikipedia is famous for inspiring long, interconnected reading sessions by way of wikilinks - there's even a game where you have to link two random articles just by clicking links.

If you're having a dispute with someone, go take a walk, but if you don't want to do that, just take a Wikiwalk. Browse a random article, and if you see something interesting, click on it. Pretty soon, you'll find yourself engrossed in something you didn't even know existed an hour ago.

So get out there, and do it, right now. Just click here.
