What links here: Editing Basics
Editing basics
- Start editing
- To start editing a page, click the edit tab at top of page. This brings you to the edit page: a page with a text box containing the wikitext: the editable source code from which the server produces the webpage. If you just want to experiment, please do so in the sandbox, not here.
- Type your changes
- You can just type your text. However, also using basic markup to make links and do simple formatting adds to the value of your contribution.
