The random page patrol, the most recommended method of improving this Wiki, refers to the process of regularly and frequently checking randomly selected pages through [[Special:Random]]. Once you have obtained a random article, first try to expand the article as best as possible. If the article is a {{wp|Wikipedia:Stub|stub}}, prioritize expanding it so that it is no longer a stub; if you cannot, make sure the {{tlx|stub}} template is present before finalizing your edits. Next, ensure that the article conforms to this Wiki's [[Help:Editing guide#Content guidelines|content guidelines]] and that its style and formatting are consistent and meet the basic principles laid out in the [[Help:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]. Once the article has been improved to a satisfying degree, repeat with another random article. | The random page patrol, the most recommended method of improving this Wiki, refers to the process of regularly and frequently checking randomly selected pages through [[Special:Random]].
