Help:Editing
Project help page / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wikipedia is a wiki, meaning anyone can edit nearly any[1] page and improve articles immediately. You do not need to register to do this, and anyone who has edited is known as a 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 VisualEditor (VE) and classic wikitext editing (wiki markup), which uses the Source Editor.
This page is about how to edit Wikipedia in general. For the editing policy, see Wikipedia:Editing policy. For information on how and where you can contribute, see Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia. For getting help from someone, see Wikipedia:Questions.
