Plan: Start out explaining what wikipedia is for and how to get more users, then I'll answer specific questions. I'll provide links to all the sources and places you can go to on this wikipage, so you can look things up later!

Albanian wikipedia is live and doing ok, currently with 27639 content pages at time of writing, and 192 active users.

182:
366:
Be tolerant of their mistakes. Give them time to be stupid and grow up.
