I finally reached 300 contributions and I’m going for the title of a NAB. I’ve decided that my time on wikiHow (and how much I enjoy being part of it) can be put toward the community a bit more. I still make a few mistakes, but I’ve been studying the critical guides for the test for some time while I hit 300. I got a 22/23 on the first test, or a 96%
Do any New Article Boosters have any tips they can share? I’d really appreciate them. Thank you!

If I could offer some advice, I’d suggest waiting for a little more. You’ll feel a lot more confident one you feel you are ready instead of just meeting the bare minimum :). Don’t worry about making mistakes. We all do, and that’s how we learn. Thanks a lot for trying to become a new article booster! Its great that you’re trying to help the website in new ways. We all would love some help clearing out that nasty backlog

The http://www.wikihow.com/Special:Newpages
could be your friend more than you think, for a starters point
I have Microsoft Word open so I can copy/paste articles, copyedit in there, and then copy/paste them back into the editing screen.
Thank you for your interest in becoming a New Article Booster, @JustChristina
! Cleaning some articles in http://www.wikihow.com/Category:Copyedit
and http://www.wikihow.com/Category:Format
could be helpful in achieving Booster status (since NAB requires the ability to copyedit and format articles). If you need any more help, please leave me a talk page note. I would be happy to offer you tips that could be of help, as well as strategies that could be helpful.
No problem! It is my pleasure to assist you.
