Editing
To start editing a page, click on the "edit" link at the top. This will bring you to a text box containing the article. Once you have edited the article, you can write a short note in the summary box to describe the changes you've made.
Logged-in users have the option of marking a change to a page as a minor edit. This should only be used for spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearrangement of text. If text is added, removed or changed, it should not be marked as a minor edit.
Please preview before saving. Press the "Show preview" button to see how your changes will look before you make them permanent. Repeat the edit/preview process until you are satisfied, then click "Save" and your changes will be immediately applied to the article.
