Help:How to edit a page
Any logged-in user can create new articles or edit those already existing to improve them. |
Contents
Format and illustrate the article
If you want to, you can edit the articles' appearence with the toolbar and its numerous functions:
Toolbar presentation | Create links between the articles | Create a table |
Illustrate with an image | Illustrate with a video | Using the wikitext mode |
For users with old web browsers:
If you're using an old web browser, you might see this toolbar when editing an article:
If you're concerned, I advise to download a more recent browser, for example Firefox. With your current browser, you can edit articles, but only in "wikitext" mode, wich is more difficult.
If you don't see any toolbar, make sure JavaScript is activated on your browser.
Accessing the editing page
To edit an article, display the article and click on the "Edit" link on the menu on the right. (You must be connected).
Some important pages are protected. Only a wikitechnician can edit them.
Editing the page content
It's in the yellow zone of the editing box (image below) that you can add or erase text, correct mistakes, etc.
Preview the modifications
After editing, click on the "Preview" button to see what your article will look like.
You can make modifications and preview them as many times as you need before publishing.
Publishing modifications (or cancelling them)
If you like the result and you think you're finished, click on the "Publish" button pour sauvegarder et publier tes modifications.
If you change your mind and you don't want to publish your modifications, click on the "Cancel" link.
