You are welcome to contribute short articles, called "stubs", of about 150-250 words. Stubs should be self-contained, include a definition or description of the topic, and serve as a good general overview. In other words, they should be serviceable as entries in a traditional desktop reference such as the Columbia Encyclopedia.

Some people believe that stubs encourage others to help "build the web." Many people can write excellent short articles even when they don't have the knowledge to expand them. So if you feel tempted to "turn a red link blue" with a stub, feel free.
