This Editing Overview is meant as a quick reference, with some "getting started" help. It has a lot of wikitext examples. Each of the topics covered here is covered somewhere else in more detail. Please look in the box on the right for the topic you are interested in. You may want to keep this page open in a separate browser window for reference while you edit.

Editing Basics
- Start editing
- To start editing a page, click on the "Edit this page" (or just "edit") link at one of its edges. This will bring you to the edit page: a page with a text box containing the wikitext: the editable source code from which the server produces the webpage. If you just want to experiment, please do so in the FAIRwiki:Sandbox, not here.
- Summarize your changes
- You should write a short Edit Summary in the small field below the edit-box. You may use shorthand to describe your changes, as described in the legend.
- Preview before saving
- When you have finished, press preview to see how your changes will look -- before you make them permanent. Repeat the edit/preview process until you are satisfied, then click "Save" and your changes will be immediately applied to the article.
Wikitext markup -- making your page look the way you want it
If you want to try out things without danger of doing any harm, you can do so in the Sandbox.
Organizing your writing: Sections, paragraphs, lists and lines
| What it looks like | What you type |
|---|---|
Start sections with header lines Note: Single equal signs give the highest level heading, like the page title; usually projects have the convention not to use them.
New section Subsection Sub-subsection |
== New section == === Subsection === ==== Sub-subsection ==== |
|
A single newline has no effect on the layout. But an empty line starts a new paragraph, or ends a list or indented part. (<p> disables this paragraphing until </p> or the end of the section) (in Cologne Blue two newlines and a div tag give just one newline; in the order newline, div tag, newline, the result is two newlines) You can make the wikitext more readable by putting in newlines. You might find this causes future problems -- see w:Wikipedia:Don't use line breaks for details. |

hence less readable. Never start ordinary lines with spaces. |

General notes:
- Enclose the target name in double square brackets -- "[[" and "]]"
- First letter of target name is automatically capitalized
- Spaces are represented as underscores (but don't do underscores yourself)
- Links to nonexistant pages are shown in red -- [[MediaWiki User's Guide: Starting a new page|]] tells about creating the page.
- When the mouse cursor "hovers" over the link, you see a "hover box" containing...
| What it looks like | What you type |
|---|---|
Sue is reading the official position (or Official positions). |
Sue is reading the [[official position]]s (or [[Official position]]). |
A link to the page on another wiki (e.g. the same subject in another language)
|
*For more info see [[m:Help:Interwiki linking]]. *[[:fr:Wikipédia:Aide]]. |
If the section doesn't exist, the link goes to the top of the page |
*[[List of cities by country#Morocco]]. *[[List of cities by country#Sealand]]. |
|
Use a pipe "|" to create a link label: |
*[[Help:Links|About Links]] *[[List of cities by country#Morocco| Cities in Morocco]] |
|
"blank" pipes hide stuff:
After you save, the server automatically fills in the link label. |
*In parentheses: [[kingdom (biology)|]]. *Namespace: [[Wikipedia:Village pump|]]. |
