'''VOLUNTEERS
Like Wikimedia, World University and School projects are made by volunteers, like you. Editors contribute new articles and improve current articles.
And like Wikipedia, World University and School is a volunteer service. But, what exactly does this mean? Almost all contributions are made in the free time of their contributors. There are no set crews or teams working on articles on any topic, just those who come along and volunteer information at any time they wish.
World University and School also has organizational volunteering opportunities, such as regarding online administration, board of trustees' member, university leadership member, advisory board member, etc.
Programmers who know MediaWiki, and Wikidata, and potentially the Google ecosystem too (especially Google Street View with Time Slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI, Translate, GDocs and Google Workspace for Education).

===Ideas===
World University and School's wiki focus is on adding any free Open Educational Resources, and within these guidelines (and engaging Wikipedia's editing protocols, in part), WUaS heartily welcomes volunteers (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Volunteers) to add open, highest quality (WUaS is MIT OCW- and great universities-centric) resources for teaching and learning, and thus co-create WUaS ... much as Wikipedia has been co-created by all of us in 285 languages, with millions of articles thanks to us all having written it together.
