Your WAPD
This is Our WAPD, we must work together to continue our primary mission of "the Beacon of Knowledge and Refuge For the World's Largest Minority" that helps so many people. The new chat room is open and hopefully we can develop a large group of chatters to socialize and share ideas.
Help Needed
Keeping WAPD #1 takes quite a bit of work. We need your help!
One project is the updating of the Internet Resources database. Many people will be needed to verify each and every link and update the information while removing broken links.
This is only one project of many that you could help with to make WAPD the very best.
