Help:Editing
From AVENwiki
Editing basics
- Start editing
- To start editing a wiki page, click the Edit this page (or just edit) link at one of its edges. 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 wikitext markup to make links and do simple formatting adds to the value of your contribution.
- Summarize your changes
- Write a short edit summary in the small field below the edit-box.
- Preview before saving
- When you have finished, click Show preview to see how your changes will look -- before you make them permanent. Repeat the edit/preview process until you are satisfied, then click Save page and your changes will be immediately applied to the article.
