Help:Editing
This is a Wiki, which means that anyone can easily edit any unprotected page and save those changes immediately to that page. To request a change to a protected page, use the talk page.

Minor edits
When editing an article page on this site, a logged-in user can mark that edit as being "minor". Minor edits generally mean spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearrangement of text. It is possible to "hide" minor edits when viewing the recent changes. Marking a significant change as a minor edit is considered bad behavior, especially when it involves the deletion of some text.
Major edits
All editors are encouraged to be bold, but there are several things that a user can do to ensure that major edits are performed smoothly. Before engaging in a major edit, consider discussing proposed changes on the article discussion/talk page. During the edit, if doing so over an extended period of time, the {{inuse}} tag can reduce the likelihood of an edit conflict. Once the edit has been completed, the inclusion of an edit summary will assist in documenting the changes.
Wiki markup
Wiki markup is the syntax system you can use to format a wiki page.
The table below is an elaborate list of various edits. The left column shows the effects available. The right column shows the wiki markup used to achieve them. If it confuses you, just type the text you want to include on a page and place {{cleanup}} at the top of that section; someone else can make it look "pretty" later.
You may want to keep this page open in a separate browser window/tab for reference. If you want to try out things without danger of doing any harm, you can do so in the Sandbox. Try opening the Sandbox in a separate window or tab and keeping this page open for reference.
Examples

A single newline/carriage return generally has no effect on the layout. These can be used to separate sentences within a paragraph. Some editors find that this aids editing and improves the function diff (used internally to compare different versions of a page). But an empty line starts a new paragraph.

A manual newline starts a new paragraph.

: A colon indents a line or paragraph. A manual newline starts a new paragraph. |
|
When there is a need for separating a block of text
This is useful for (as the name says) inserting blocks of quoted (and cited) text. |
<blockquote> The '''blockquote''' command will indent both margins when needed instead of the left margin only as the colon does. </blockquote> |
|
(See formula on right):
|
IF a line starts with a space THEN
it will be formatted exactly
as typed;
in a fixed-width font;
lines will not wrap;
END IF

No/limited formatting
- showing exactly what is being typed
A few different kinds of formatting will tell the wiki to display things as you typed them - what you see, is what you get!
| What it looks like | What you type | |
|---|---|---|
| <nowiki> tags |
The nowiki tag ignores wiki ''markup''. It reformats text by removing newlines and multiple spaces. It still interprets special characters: → |
<nowiki> The nowiki tag ignores wiki ''markup''. It reformats text by removing newlines and multiple spaces. It still interprets special characters: → </nowiki> |
| <pre> tags |
The pre tag ignores wiki ''markup''. It also doesn't reformat text. It still interprets special characters: → |
<pre> The pre tag ignores wiki ''markup''. It also doesn't reformat text. It still interprets special characters: → </pre> |
| Leading spaces |
Leading spaces are another way to preserve formatting. Putting a space at the beginning of each line stops the text from being reformatted. It still interprets wiki markup and special characters: → |

Table of contents
Having at least four headers on a page triggers the Table of Contents to appear in front of the first header (or after introductory sections). Putting __TOC__ anywhere forces the TOC to appear at that point (instead of just before the first header). Putting __NOTOC__ anywhere forces the TOC to disappear. Putting {{TOCright}} moves the Table to the right side of the page.
Tables
There are two ways to build tables:
- in special Wiki-markup (see Help:Table)
- with the usual HTML elements: <table>, <tr>, <td> or <th>.
For the latter, and a discussion on when tables are appropriate, see Help:Table.

NUMBEROFARTICLES is the number of pages in the main namespace which contain a link and are not a redirect, in other words number of articles, stubs containing a link, and disambiguation pages.
CURRENTMONTHNAMEGEN is the genitive (possessive) grammatical form of the month name, as used in some languages; CURRENTMONTHNAME is the nominative (subject) form, as usually seen in English.
In languages where it makes a difference, you can use constructs like {{grammar:case|word}} to convert a word from the nominative case to some other case. For example, {{grammar:genitive|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}}} means the same as {{CURRENTMONTHNAMEGEN}}.
Templates
The MediaWiki software has support for templates. This means standardized text chunks (such as boilerplate text) can be inserted into articles. For example, typing {{stub}} will appear as "This article is a stub. You can help by expanding it." when the page is saved. See Special:Allpages for the complete list.
Hiding the edit links
Insert __NOEDITSECTION__ into the document to suppress the edit links that appear next to every section header. Use with caution, as this means editors have to load the entire document into the edit window to make any changes.
