DON'T APPLY ARBITRARY LIMITS AND STANDARDS TO YOURSELF
IF YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING BUT LACK KNOWLEDGE, ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE FIRST. YOU HAVE THE WHOLE INTERNET TO GATHER INFO FROM
Who cares if you can't write as well as you want to, or if you're not as knowledgeable about the scene as you want to be? Write to the best of your ability and figure out what info you need to update a player profile.
If you screw up that badly, someone will tell you why you were wrong and you can learn from it.
Moping about not being good enough wont help you become good enough.
Sometimes I want to hug you SGTK.
Sometimes I want to slap you, though.

Personally speaking, I randomly volunteered last year for NASL's production of the WCS America Season 2 finals and I haven't done anything since; And I'm more than okay with that, because although I COULD be doing more, and COULD have done more since then, at least I did something. Not trying to be religious here, but have you ever heard of the bible story where Jesus witnessed a poor woman contributing a very small amount of money comparatively to the rich donations? The intention, heart, spirit of the action, whatever is good. Even if you think making an edit on Liquipedia is only a small drop in the bucket, it's one drop more than before.
Alternatively, be creative with what you can do...!

Honestly, I really could use the hug and slap about equally as much.
But your right, I need to stop setting such barriers for myself. I've always struggled with confidence issues and just need to try stuff sometimes. When I get back home from my vacation, I'm gonna really try and figure something out!
Thanks

np, the worst that happens is being rejected. The worst case outcome of rejection in this context is having your feelings/pride hurt.
Are you going to let hurt feelings or damaged pride stop you from being happy? I hope not. Who cares what anyone else thinks? Confidence starts and ends with you.
You're on vacation? Get off TL for 5 goddamn minutes you have enough posts to last you a while. Go have some fun or something. We wont forget about you!
also you're*

Graphics staff always needs a helping hand, true. If you ever want to get into editing Liquipedia, we'll happily hold your hand to get you started though. There's lots of stuff we can't do because we don't have enough manpower.
