+Helping Vimwiki
+==============================================================================
+
+Vimwiki has a lot of users but only very few recurring developers or people helping the community. Your help is therefore appreciated. Everyone can help! See [#625](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/issues/625) for information on how you can help.
