Help:Editing: Difference between revisions

== Begin editing ==

To begin editing a page, click on ''"Edit this page"'' or the ''"edit"'' tab at the top. To edit an individual section, look at the section header for ''"<nowiki>[edit]</nowiki>"''.

== "Minor" edits ==

A logged in user has the option of flagging the edit as a "minor edit". When to use this is some what a matter of personal preference. The rule of thumb is that an edit of a page that is spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a "minor edit".  A major edit is basically something that makes the entry worth relooking at for somebody who wants to watch the article rather closely, so any "real" change, even if it is a single word. This feature is important, because users can choose to ''hide'' minor edits in their view of the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] to keep the volume of edits down to a manageable level.

== Summary ==

The Summary is a summary of what you have done to change the page. Whether it be creating the page or fixing a spelling error, you should always fill out the summary, so administrators know what you've done.

== The wiki markup ==

=== Sections, paragraphs, lists, and lines ===

<table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"><tr><th>What You See</th><th>What You Type</th></tr>

=== Links, URLs ===

<table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>

<tr><td>

To connect in between wikis use the Interwiki code

Using colored text is highly discouraged but in some cases useful.  To color your text enter the following code.  So for example:
