You must create an account to make edits to pages. Once you have an account, you can add to pages while logged in by clicking on the 'edit' tab on the page you wish to make additions to.

When done inserting your text, you have the option to add a summary of your additions. If you are only making a grammatical edit or other small change, you can select 'This is a minor edit.' If you wish to keep track of the page, you can select 'Watch this page' to add it to your watchlist.

You can format your text using wiki markup. This consists of normal characters like asterisks, single quotes or equation marks which have a special function in the wiki, sometimes depending on their position. For example, to format a word in italic, you include it in two single quotes like ''this''

Notes:

  1. Use of a heading created by single equal signs is discouraged as it appears with the same formatting and size as the page title, which can be confusing.
  2. An article with four or more headings will automatically create a table of contents.


[edit] Paragraphs

MediaWiki ignores normal line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can also start a new line with the HTML tags <br> or <br/>.

[edit] HTML

Some HTML tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example <code>, <div>, <span> and <font>.
