I helped start WikiProject Effective Altruism a few months ago, but I think that the items on our WikiProject’s to-do list are not as valuable as, say, organizing a local EA group at a top university, or writing a useful post on the EA Forum. One tricky thing about Wikipedia is that you have to be objective, so while someone might read an article on effective altruism and be like “wow, this is a cool idea”, you can’t engage them further. I also think that the articles are already pretty decent.
