Do you have a camera that takes high quality pictures?
 +
*Some of the pictures on this website were taken on a camera phone, if you have a higher quality one, upload a new version of that image. See the category [[:Category:Camera phone images|camera phone images]] to see which pictures need to be replaced with a higher quality image.
 +
*We need pictures of Chinese characters, [[hanja]] (한자),  in use for our [[:Category:Chinese_Roots|hanja vocabulary]] pages. If you see a sign with hanja in use, please take a picture of it and [[Special:Upload|upload]] it.
 +
*We need pictures of anything that could go on any of the [[:Category:Vocabulary|vocabulary pages]]. For examples on the types of pictures that would be suitable, look at the [[subway]] [[:Category:Vocabulary|vocabulary page]] for examples of how pictures can improve [[:Category:Vocabulary|vocabulary pages]].
 +
*Any picture you think would be beneficial to learning Korean or measuring one's ability in Korean.
 +
*Pictures should also have an explanation and translation in the image's description.

*Record any announcements from the bus.

*Record any kind of announcement in public that many people might hear on a daily basis and would benefit learners of Korean (i.e. at the ATM machine, see [[Banking_and_investing#Messages|this example]]).

With a wiki, people who have already figured out accurate translations for Korean grammar patterns can give their own 2 cents on current articles, as well as create their own articles. Telling the textbook it’s wrong isn’t going to change anything, whereas in a wiki if you see something wrong you can fix it yourself and add your own insight. Furthermore no one wants to carry around several text books and pages of notes and go searching through them; it’s much easier to pull up an article on this wiki, not to mention it can be accessed anywhere, anytime. For more information, see [[Korean_Wiki_Project:About|about Korean Wiki Project]].
