Welcome to our community portal. This is the page to learn about using/editing the AoPSWiki, discover what is currently on-going on the AoPSWiki, and view important guidelines and policies that editors should abide by.

About

Main article: AoPSWiki:About

What makes AoPSWiki different from other math-related wikis and web resources is that the AoPSWiki is more involved in problem-solving techniques than most other math dictionaries or math encyclopedias (which are usually written on the level of professional mathematicians).

Getting Started

Help Out

As a fairly new wiki, the AoPSWiki needs the help of many contributors. Here are some ways to help improve the quality of the AoPSWiki.

  • Create an non-existant article.
  • Edit existing articles to fix errors (both grammatical and mistakes) or to add more information.
  • De-stub a short article.
  • Create and upload relevant images.
  • Add solutions to problems that lack them.
  • Support the AoPSWiki.
  • Spread the word about the AoPSWiki.
