Article management templates and a project page
I find page (article management) templates (page tags, in Wikipedia terms) most useful, since they allow you to "outsource" your high-level admin knowledge of what needs to be done, and why, to lists that other editors can use.

Templates like:


 * Citation needed (for a paragraph, section , or page)
 * Page needs expanding
 * Needs improvement (for a page or section)

From there, a Projects (to do) page that lists all of those tasks is important, too.

other helpful pages

 * A sandbox, for testing
 * Special:NewPages
 * Special:AllPages
 * Special:ListUsers
 * Special:UncategorizedPages
 * Special:ShortPages (though hopefully you won't need this; good to know about)
 * Special:Insights
