Editing most Wikipedia pages is easy. Simply click on the "'''edit this page'''" tab at the top of a Wikipedia page (or on a [[Wikipedia: Section | section-edit]] link). This will bring you to a new page with a text box containing the editable text of the original page. If you add information to a page, [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|please provide references]], as [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|unreferenced facts are subject to removal]]. When you are finished with an edit, you should write a short [[Wikipedia:Edit_summary | edit summary]] in the small field below the edit-box. You may use shorthand to describe your changes, as described in the [[Wikipedia:Edit_summary_legend | legend]], and when you see the difference between the page with your edits and the previous version of the page by pressing the "'''Show changes'''" button. If you're satisfied with what you see, [[Wikipedia:Be_bold_in_updating_pages | be bold]] and press the "'''Save page'''" button. Your changes will immediately be visible to all Wikipedia users.

You should also remember to [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|sign your messages]] on [[Wikipedia:Talk pages|talk pages]] and some special-purpose [[Wikipedia:Project namespace|project pages]], but you should '''not''' sign edits you make to regular articles. In [[Wikipedia:Page history|page histories]], the [[MediaWiki]] software keeps track of which user makes each change.

 

{{further|[[Help:Minor edit|Minor edits]]}}

A check to the "minor edit" box signifies that only superficial differences exist between the version with your edit and the previous version: typo corrections, formatting and presentational changes, rearranging of text without modifying content, etc. A ''minor edit'' is a version that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. The "minor edit" option is one of several [[Wikipedia:Why create an account%3F#New_editing_options|options]] available only to registered users.

 

All editors are encouraged to [[Wikipedia:Be_bold|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, a user should consider discussing proposed changes on the article discussion/talk page. During the edit, if doing so over an extended period of time, the {{[[Template:inuse|inuse]]}} tag can reduce the likelihood of an edit conflict. Once the edit has been completed, the inclusion of an [[Help:Edit summary|edit summary]] will assist in documenting the changes. These steps will all help to ensure that major edits are well received by the Wikipedia community.

 

There are no necessary terms to which you have to agree when doing major edits, but the recommendations above have become best practice. If you do it your own way, the likelihood of your edits being reedited may be higher.

 

{{shortcut|WP:MARKUP}}

 

The '''wiki markup''' is the syntax system you can use to format a Wikipedia page; please see [[Help:Editing]] for details on it, and [[Help:Wikitext examples]] for a longer list of the possibilities of Wikitext.
