Quiz Completion Stats
Hey there! I'm Krystle. I became involved with wikiHow when it was started in 2005. I was working with Jack Herrick as a copyeditor when he told me he was starting wikiHow and asked if I'd be interested in helping out. I said yes. Best decision ever. I worked with the wikiHaus staff for over 11 years until 2016 and joined the team again in 2020 to contribute behind the scenes.
My first edit was to an article on How to Add. Since then I've made 60,000+ edits...which just a drop in the collaborative bucket of this amazing project.

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR ACCOMPLISHMENT OF ACHIEVEMENT
SUBJECT: Challenge Coin Issuance
Ms. Chung,
As wikiHow’s Community Manager, you have faced many challenges, from organizing and editing of articles to the integration of new members into the community. This work, while sometimes invisible to the outside world, is always appreciated. Your personal dedication and upmost integrity shine through the work that you have accomplished.
Created in World War II, Challenge Coins were distributed to Allied soldiers as bona fides. These coins were used to identify friendlies behind enemy lines. While coins can be purchased, the best coins must be earned.
To commemorate your accomplishment and as a token of appreciation, it is my distinct honor to present to you the United States Air Force Communications and Information Challenge Coin. This coin symbolizes your accomplishments and your tireless efforts as Community Manager. It also signifies how you have not only shaped the wikiHow community, but also helped make the Internet a little better.
THEREFORE, AS A MEMBER OF THE HEADQUARTERS STAFF OF THE UNITED STATES AIR FORCE A1M INTEGRATION DIVISION, I HEREBY BESTOW UPON KRYSTLE CHUNG THE COMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION SQUADRON CHALLENGE COIN.

Meet a Community Member
Meet Bhoimus, a wikiHowian who enjoys doing a lot of different things around wikiHow, including patrolling, boosting new articles, welcoming, and performing various wikiGnome tasks.
Why they contribute to wikiHow:
"I like the collaborative and friendly environment. Unlike general wikis, this site is not overwhelming at all—making it a good starting point for new contributors. Everyone is willing to help towards a common mission with kindness and passion."
Their advice to new editors:
"The Community Dashboard lists out plenty of ways you can help! Choose any activity you want and don't be afraid to make an edit. When in doubt, feel free to ask questions. As you learn the ropes, you can check out the Community Forums, where you can interact and collaborate with other users!"
