-As well as editing, users are invited to become involved in '''maintenance tasks'''. Most of these tasks can be done by any user, not just [[FamilySearch Wiki:Administrators|administrators]].
-Maintenance work is a vital part of keeping the Research Wiki running optimally. Be careful to avoid creating more maintenance work through [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Instruction_creep instruction creep]. Organize when you can, but always keep [[The Vision: Why We Built FamilySearch Wiki|the big picture]] in sight: we are here to create a resource for family history researchers. If you wish to contribute to FamilySearch Wiki in ways other than maintenance, please consider some suggestions of [[FamilySearch Wiki:Things you can do|things you can do]].
