Editing a page[edit]
It's very easy to begin editing. Once you're signed in, just click the blue edit button at the top of a page to start!
You might have noticed that the edit button is often split into two parts. A larger half with the word "Edit" and a pencil, and a smaller half with four square brackets. The larger half is the Visual editor, and the smaller half is the Source editor.
The editor you use is up to you. Both have their pros and cons!
