The web is so full of how to articles. But there is one place that you must know about. Its wikiHow, the how-to manual that everyone can read and write.
I was looking for some tips to clean my room quickly and I found the article on wikiHow – Clean your room in 10 minutes. There are so many articles about so many things, for example there is a how-to about making your bed, how to be popular in highschool, change a car engine, and How to be the favorite grandparent. wikiHow is a collaboration to build and share the world’s largest, highest quality how-to manual.
How WikiHow works? WikiHow’s about page explains the process in these words:
wikiHow is a wiki, which is a web site that anyone can write and anyone can edit. Any visitor to wikiHow can create a new page to write about how to do something. Once the page is submitted, any other visitor can edit, improve, or change the page. Over time, the quality of the page rises as many people make improvements. To see for yourself how pages improve, view this time lapse edit revision reel of an actual article. All changes on the site are displayed on “recent changes” and also in the “page history” of each specific article. wikiHow works because we trust our users to behave in a manner which helps others. As a result, our users quickly remove vandalism, nonsense, and material that is inappropriate for our how-to manual.
