Editing rules, editing conventions, and formatting
The number one rule of wiki editing, is to be bold!. Dive in and make changes. Other people can correct mistakes later, so have confidence, and give it a try! There can be all kinds of editing conventions, rules, and philosophy governing the editing of wiki pages, but the "be bold" rule overrides these!
In general try to write clearly and concisely and make sure you are always aiming to do something which improves the wiki contents. An edit might be to contribute whole paragraphs or pages full of information, or it could be as simple as fixing a typo or spelling mistake.
When you need to use some type of formatting e.g. new headings or bold text, you do this using wiki syntax. See Help:Formatting for some of the common types of formatting used.
Edit Summary
Before you save a change, you can enter a short note in the Summary box describing your changes. Don't worry too much about this, or spend too much time thinking about it, but try to give a little description of what you just changed e.g. "fixed typo" or "added more information about sunflowers".
The summary gets stored alongside your edit, and allows people to track changes in the wiki more effectively.
Preview
It's a good idea to use the “Preview” button to see what your change will look like, before you save it. This is also related to tracking changes because every time you save, this is displayed to others as a separate change. 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 several minor corrections afterwards.
Other types of editing
With wiki edits you can start a new page, move (or rename) a page, or even delete a page:
Remember you should always aim to improve the overall contents of the wiki with your edits.
Discussion
Every article has its own "talk page" where you can ask questions, make suggestions, or discuss corrections. See Help:Talk Pages

Protected Pages
- For more information, see Help:Protected Pages
- For more information, see Help:Protected Pages
零Wiki admins will occasionally 'protect' pages from being edited. This is to keep a track on vandalism, or it's important stuff (such as Help Topics) that normal users don't need to mess with. Occasionally, articles and images will be locked if they are chosen to show up on the front page. Users are unable to edit protected pages.
Adding Category Tags
- For more information, see Help:Categories
- For more information, see Help:Categories
To add an article or page to a category, place [[Category: nameofcategory]] at the very bottom of your article. Pages can have multiple categories if they fit into multiple categories.
