Line 1: ~~{{DISPLAYTITLE:'''Wikipedia:Be bold'''}}~~ <noinclude>{{Short description\|Wikipedia editing guideline}} {{redirect\|WP:BOLD\|the Manual of Style guideline on the use of boldface in Wikipedia text formatting\|MOS:BOLD}} Line 16 ⟶ 15: '''Fix it yourself instead of just talking about it.''' In the time it takes to write about the problem, you could instead improve the encyclopedia. Wikipedia not only lets you add and edit articles: it ''wants'' you to do it. '''Do not be upset if your bold edits get reverted.''' Of course, others here will edit what you write. [[Wikipedia:Assume good faith\|Do not take it personally]]! They, like all of us, just wish to make Wikipedia as good an encyclopedia as it can possibly be. Also, when you see a conflict in a [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines\|talk page]], do not be just a "mute spectator"; be bold and drop your opinion there; see [[WP:EPTALK\|the official policy on talking and editing]] for more! On some of the less- prominent articles on Wikipedia that have a lower editing rate, your bold edit might not be responded to immediately. Think about it this way: if you don't find one of your edits being reverted now and then, perhaps you're not being bold enough. {{TOC limit\|2}}
