Editing help can be found in the Help:Editing article at Wikimedia, which is a handy reference for beginning editors, or in the Mediawiki Handbook, a detailed editing guide.

Editors are strongly encouraged to:

  • Preview your edits with the "Show preview" button whenever you're unsure if your edit will appear correctly.
  • Sign your comments on talk pages by adding ~~~~ to the end of each one. If you don't, other editors will have to take the time to sign your comments for you with Template:Unsigned.
