It's very easy to edit the contents of a wiki:

{{ombox|image=none|small=y|text='''Note''': You can use the [[Draft:Sandbox|sandbox]] to experiment with page editing.|imageright=[[File:Sandbox.svg|52px]]}}
[[Wikipedia]] is a [[wiki]], meaning anyone can edit nearly any<ref name="protection"/> page and improve articles immediately. You do not need to register to do this, and anyone who has edited is known as a ''[[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedian]]'' or ''editor.'' Small edits add up, and every editor can be proud to have made Wikipedia better for all. There are two editing interfaces: the new [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] (VE) and classic [[Help:Wikitext|wikitext]] editing (wiki markup), which uses the [[Help:Introduction to editing with Wiki Markup/1|Source Editor]].

An [[Wikipedia:Writing better articles#Information style and tone|encyclopedic style]] with a [[Wikipedia:Writing better articles#Tone|formal tone]] is important: straightforward, [[Wikipedia:Summary style|just-the-facts]], instead of essay-like, argumentative, or opinionated. The goal of a Wikipedia article is to create a comprehensive and [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutrally written]] summary of existing mainstream knowledge about a topic. Wikipedia does not publish [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]]. An encyclopedia is, by its nature, a [[tertiary source]] that provides a survey of information already published in the wider world. Ideally, all information should be [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|cited]] and [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiable]] by [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]]. Sourcing requirements are significantly stricter in [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|articles on living persons]].
{{anchor|Edit window}}
=== Edit screen(s) ===
Editing most Wikipedia pages is simple. Wikipedia uses two interface methods: classic editing with the [[Help:Introduction to editing with Wiki Markup/1|Source Editor]] through [[Help:Wikitext|wikitext]] (wiki markup), and a new [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] (VE).  


Wikitext editing using the Source Editor is chosen by clicking the <kbd>Edit source</kbd> tab at the top of a Wikipedia page (or on a [[Help:Section|section-edit link]]). This opens an editable copy of the page, showing all the wikitext used there, and the Source Editor toolbar offers simple menu options to add or change the formatting. Wikitext is used extensively throughout Wikipedia for such things as [[Help:Link|hyperlinks]], [[Help:Table|tables]] and [[Help:Columns|columns]], [[Help:Footnotes|footnotes]], [[Wikipedia:Inline citation|inline citation]], [[Help:Special characters|special characters]] and so on. The Source Editor lets users toggle on 'wikitext highlighting' which uses different colours to help differentiate article text from wikitext.
<!--T:3-->
Simple as that!


The VisualEditor option is intended as a user-friendly, "What You See Is What You Get" ([[WYSIWYG]]) editing aid, allowing one to edit pages without the need to learn wikitext markup. It is available only to registered, logged-in users through an opt-in choice available through [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|personal preferences]]. See the [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User guide|VisualEditor user guide]] for more information.

The number one rule of wiki editing is to '''be bold'''. Go ahead—make changes. Other people can correct any mistakes you make, so have confidence, and give it a try! There are all kinds of editing conventions, rules, and philosophies for the editing of wiki pages, but the '''be bold''' rule is the most important of these!

The Wikipedia community has developed [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|style guidelines]] to make articles and facts appear in a standardized form, and Wikipedia easier to use as a whole. A basic list of [[Help:Wikitext|wikitext]] can be found on the [[Help:Cheatsheet|cheatsheet]]. An "[[Help:Edit toolbar|edit toolbar]]" is provided just above the edit box (pictured below), which allows logged-in users (by selecting the option in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets|personal preferences]]) to automatically place and format various aspects of wiki code. See [[Help:Wikitext]] for more information, remember that you can't break Wikipedia, and, although there are many protocols, [[Wikipedia:Editing policy#Wikipedia is a work in progress: perfection is not required|perfection is not required]], as [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia is a work in progress|Wikipedia is a work in progress]].
<!--T:6-->
An edit can contribute whole new paragraphs or pages of information, or it can be as simple as fixing a typo or a spelling mistake. In general, try to add or edit text so that it is clear and concise. Most importantly, make sure you are always aiming to do something which ''improves'' the contents of the wiki.
</translate>


[[File:WikiEditor-advanced menu-en.png|center]]
<translate><!--T:7--> When you need to use some type of formatting, such as for new headings or bolding of text, you do this using wiki syntax or the buttons in the [[<tvar name=meta-help-edittoolbar>m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit toolbar</tvar>|edit toolbar]] above the editing zone.</translate>
<translate><!--T:29--> See <tvar name=1>{{ll|Help:Formatting}}</tvar> for some of the common types of formatting used.</translate>


When you have finished editing, you should write a short [[Help:Edit summary|edit summary]] in the small field below the edit box (pictured below). You may use shorthand to describe your changes, as described in the [[Wikipedia:Edit summary legend|legend]]. To see how the page looks with your edits, press the "'''Show preview'''" button. To see the differences between the page with your edits and the previous version of the page, press the "'''Show changes'''" button. If you're satisfied with what you see, '''[[Wikipedia:Be bold|be bold]]''' and press the "'''Publish changes'''" button. Your changes will immediately be visible to all Wikipedia users.

==== Minor edits ====
<translate>
{{further|Help:Minor edit}}
<!--T:10-->
[[File:Minor edit.png|thumb|upright|The "minor edit" checkbox (circled) in the wikitext editor]]
This summary gets stored alongside your edit, and allows people to [[<tvar name=help-tracking1>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Tracking changes</tvar>|track changes]] in the wiki more effectively.
A check to the "minor edit" box signifies that only superficial differences exist between the version with your edit and the previous version: typo/grammar 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?#New editing options|options]] available only to [[Help:Logging in|registered users]]. Editors should not feel that marking a change as minor devalues their effort to edit.


==== Major edits ====
== Preview == <!--T:11-->
{{further|Wikipedia:Editing policy#Talking and editing}}
</translate>
All editors are encouraged to [[Wikipedia:Be bold|be bold]] and strong, 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, the {{tlx|in use}} 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 help all to ensure that major edits are well received by the Wikipedia community.
<translate><!--T:12--> It's a good idea to use the "'''<tvar name=1>{{int|showpreview}}</tvar>'''" button to see what your change will look like, before you save it.</translate>
<translate><!--T:24--> This is also related to [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Tracking changes</tvar>|tracking changes]] because every time you save, this is displayed to others as a separate change.</translate>
<translate><!--T:25--> This isn't something to worry about too much, but it's good to get into the habit of eliminating mistakes in your own work, by using a preview before saving, rather than saving, then having to do ''another'' edit just to make one or more minor corrections.</translate>


A major edit should be reviewed to confirm that it is consensual to all concerned editors. Therefore, any change that affects the ''meaning'' of an article is major (not minor), even if the edit is a single word.
<translate>
==Show changes== <!--T:13-->


There are no necessary terms to which you have to agree when doing major edits, but the preceding recommendations have become best practice. If you do it your own way, the likelihood of your edits being reedited may be higher.
<!--T:14-->
Another option is the "'''<tvar name=1>{{int|showdiff}}</tvar>'''" button which allows you to see the differences between the current version and the edited version.


<!-- Place below here or in intro? -->
==Protected pages== <!--T:21-->
When performing a large edit, it is suggested that you periodically, and before pressing "Publish changes", copy your edits into an external text editor (preferably one without formatting, such as [[Windows Notepad]]). This ensures that in the case of a browser crash, you will not lose your work. If you are adding substantial amounts of work, it is also a good idea to publish changes in stages.


=== Adding references ===
<!--T:22-->
{{further|Help:Referencing for beginners|Wikipedia:Citing sources}}
Pages that are protected cannot be edited by anyone except users of a specific group. Protected pages will instead display "View source" instead of edit. In that case, to edit a protected page, contact a user who has permission to edit the page. The default protection levels are as follows:
{{hatnote|Introductions: [[Help:Introduction to referencing with Wiki Markup/1]] and [[Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1]]}}
[[File:Citing sources tutorial, part 1.ogv|thumb|upright|A screencast that walks through the essentials needed in citing your sources. <small>(2:01&nbsp;min)</small>]]
[[File:RefTools rework.ogv|thumb|right|upright|A screencast that walks through how to use the various features of RefTools. <small>(5:03&nbsp;min)</small>]]
Generally, sources are added directly after the facts they support at the end of the sentence and after any punctuation. Wikipedia permits editors to use any citation system that allows the reader to understand where the information came from and strongly encourages the use of [[Wikipedia:Inline citation|inline citations]] to do so. Common methods of placing inline citations include [[Help:Footnotes|footnotes]], [[Help:Shortened footnotes|shortened footnotes]] and [[Wikipedia:Citing sources#Parenthetical referencing|parenthetical references]].


Inline citations are most commonly placed by inserting a reference between <code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code> ... <code><nowiki></ref></nowiki></code> tags, directly in the text of an article. The reference is a footnote, appearing as an inline link (e.g. <small><sup><span style="color:#002BB8">[1][2]</span></sup></small>) to a particular item in a collated, numbered list of footnotes, found wherever a {{tl|reflist}} template or <code><nowiki><references /></nowiki></code> tag is present, usually in a section titled "References" or "Notes". If you are creating a new page or adding references to a page that didn't previously have any, don't forget to add a references section with this display markup.
<!--T:23-->
*None (allow all users)
*Autoconfirmed (prevent edits by new and unregistered users)
*Sysop (prevent edits by all users except administrators)


There are a number of tools available to help with citation placement and formatting, some of which are internal tools and scripts, while others are available from external sites. For an example of the former, [[Wikipedia:RefToolbar|RefToolbar]] is a [[JavaScript]] toolbar displayed above the edit box that provides the ability to automatically fill out various [[Wikipedia:Citation templates|citation templates]] and insert them in the text already formatted inside <code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code> ... <code><nowiki></ref></nowiki></code> tags. For an example of the latter, the [https://alyw234237.github.io/wiki-doi-gbooks-citation-maker/ Wikipedia DOI and Google Books Citation Maker] converts a [[digital object identifier]] (DOI) or [[Google Books]] address (URL) into a filled-out {{tl|cite journal}} or {{tl|cite book}} template ready to be pasted into an article. See [[Help:Citation tools]] for many others.
== Other types of editing == <!--T:15-->


=== Adding images, sounds, and videos ===
<!--T:16-->
{{main|Help:Creation and usage of media files}}
With wiki edits you can start a new page, move (or rename) a page, or even delete a page:
{{hatnote|Introductions: [[Help:Introduction to images with Wiki Markup/1]] and [[Help:Introduction to images with VisualEditor/1]]}}
</translate>
A file that is already hosted on Wikipedia or the [[Wikimedia Commons]] can be inserted with the basic code <code><nowiki>[[File:FILENAME|thumb|DESCRIPTION]]</nowiki></code>. (<code>Image:</code> can be substituted for <code>File:</code> with no change in effect; the choice between the two is purely a matter of editorial preference.) Using <code>thumb</code> generates a [[thumbnail]] of an image (the most common placement option), which is typically sized differently from the original image. The Wikimedia Commons' [[Commons:Special:UploadWizard|File Upload Wizard]] and Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:File Upload Wizard|File Upload Wizard]] will guide you through the process of submitting media. There are various file formats available.


== Article creation ==

* {{ll|Help:Moving a page}}
[[File:How to create a Wikipedia article - Right to science and culture.ogv|upright|thumb|A screencast demonstrating how to create a Wikipedia article manually. <small>(7:50 min)</small>]]
* {{ll|Help:Deletion and undeletion}}
Before [[Help:Your first article|starting a new article]], please understand [[Wikipedia:Notability|Wikipedia's notability requirements]]. In short, the topic of an article must have already been the subject of publication in [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]], such as books published by major publishing houses, newspapers, magazines, peer-reviewed scholarly journals and websites that meet the same requirements as reputable print-based sources. Information on Wikipedia must be verifiable; if no reliable [[Wikipedia:Independent sources|third-party]] sources can be found on a topic, then it should not have a separate article. Wikipedia's concept of notability applies this basic standard to avoid [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information|indiscriminate]] inclusion of topics.


An [[Wikipedia:Article wizard|Article Wizard]] is available to help you create articles — it is not required but will help you construct better articles. '''Note:''' The ability to create articles directly in mainspace [[Wikipedia:Autoconfirmed article creation trial/Request for comment on permanent implementation|is restricted]] to autoconfirmed users, though non-confirmed users and non-registered users can submit a proposed article through the [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation|Articles for Creation]] process, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. Before creating an article, please [[Help:Searching|search]] Wikipedia first to make sure that an article does not already exist on the subject, and please also review the [[Wikipedia:Article titles|article titling policy]] for guidance on what to name the article.

<translate><!--T:20--> Every article has its own "talk page" where you can ask questions, make suggestions, or discuss corrections.</translate>
Every article on Wikipedia has a [[Help:Talk pages|talk page]], reached by clicking the "Talk" tab just above the title (for example, [[Talk:Alexander the Great]]). There, editors can discuss improvements to the content of an article. If you ever make a change that gets [[Wikipedia:Reverting|reverted]] by another editor, discuss the change on the talk page! The [[Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle|BOLD, revert, discuss cycle]] is a popular method of reaching consensus. It is very important that you conduct yourself with [[Wikipedia:Civility|civility]] and [[Wikipedia:Assume good faith|assume good faith]] on the part of others.

Most other [[Wikipedia:Namespace|types of pages]] on Wikipedia also have associated talk pages, including the [[Wikipedia:User pages|User page]] each editor is assigned once they sign up. When other editors need to contact you, they will usually do this by leaving a message on [[Special:MyTalk|your talk page]]. When someone has left you a message that way, you will see a notice the next time you log in or view a page on Wikipedia.

Revision as of 02:16, 30 November 2022

It's very easy to edit the contents of a wiki:

  1. Click the "<tvar name=1>Edit</tvar>" [[<tvar name=2>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Navigation#page-tabs</tvar>|page tab]] at the top of the page.
  2. Make changes to the text.
  3. Click the "<tvar name=3>Save page</tvar>" button.

Simple as that!

Editing rules, editing conventions, and formatting

The number one rule of wiki editing is to be bold. Go ahead—make changes. Other people can correct any mistakes you make, so have confidence, and give it a try! There are all kinds of editing conventions, rules, and philosophies for the editing of wiki pages, but the be bold rule is the most important of these!

An edit can contribute whole new paragraphs or pages of information, or it can be as simple as fixing a typo or a spelling mistake. In general, try to add or edit text so that it is clear and concise. Most importantly, make sure you are always aiming to do something which improves the contents of the wiki. </translate>

<translate> When you need to use some type of formatting, such as for new headings or bolding of text, you do this using wiki syntax or the buttons in the [[<tvar name=meta-help-edittoolbar>m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit toolbar</tvar>|edit toolbar]] above the editing zone.</translate> <translate> See <tvar name=1>Help:Formatting </tvar> for some of the common types of formatting used.</translate>

<translate>

Edit summary

</translate> <translate> Before you save a change, you can enter a short note (must be shorter than 500 characters) in the "<tvar name=1>Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)</tvar>" box describing your changes.</translate> <translate> Don't worry too much about this, or spend too much time thinking about it: just put in a short description of what you just changed.</translate> <translate> For example, you might say "fixed typo" or "added more information about sunflowers".</translate>

<translate> This summary gets stored alongside your edit, and allows people to [[<tvar name=help-tracking1>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Tracking changes</tvar>|track changes]] in the wiki more effectively.

Preview

</translate> <translate> It's a good idea to use the "<tvar name=1>Show preview</tvar>" button to see what your change will look like, before you save it.</translate> <translate> This is also related to [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Help:Tracking changes</tvar>|tracking changes]] because every time you save, this is displayed to others as a separate change.</translate> <translate> This isn't something to worry about too much, but it's good to get into the habit of eliminating mistakes in your own work, by using a preview before saving, rather than saving, then having to do another edit just to make one or more minor corrections.</translate>

Show changes

Another option is the "<tvar name=1>Show changes</tvar>" button which allows you to see the differences between the current version and the edited version.

Protected pages

Pages that are protected cannot be edited by anyone except users of a specific group. Protected pages will instead display "View source" instead of edit. In that case, to edit a protected page, contact a user who has permission to edit the page. The default protection levels are as follows:

  • None (allow all users)

With wiki edits you can start a new page, move (or rename) a page, or even delete a page: </translate>

<translate> Remember you should always aim to improve the overall contents of the wiki with your edits.

Discussion

</translate> <translate> Every article has its own "talk page" where you can ask questions, make suggestions, or discuss corrections.</translate> <translate> See <tvar name=1>Help:Talk pages </tvar>.</translate>
