Eeditin rules, eeditin conventions, n formattin
The nummer yin rule o wiki eeditin is tae be baud. Gae oan - mak chynges. Ither fowk can correct onie mistaks that ye mak, sae hae confeedance, n gie it ae shot! Thaur's aw kynds o eeditin conventions, rules, n philosiphies fer the eeditin o wiki pages, bit the "be baud" rule is the maist important o thir!

Aen eedit can contreebute hale new paragraphs or pages o information, or it can be aes simple aes fixin ae typo or ae speelin mistak. In general, ettle tae add or eedit tex sae that it's clear n concise. Maist importantlie, mak sair that ye'r awwaas ettlin tae dae sommit that impruivs the contents o the wiki.

Whan ye need tae uise some type o formatting, like fer ae new heidin or baudin o tex, ye dae this uisin wiki syntax or the buttons in the eedit tuilbaur abuin the eeditin zone. See Help:Formattin fer some o the commyn types o formattin uised.

Eedit ootline
Afore ye hain ae chynge, ye can enter ae short myndin in the "$int-summary" kist describin yer chynges. Dinna fash ower muckle aneat this, or spend ower muckle time thinkin aneat it: jist pit ae short descreeption in o whit ye jist chynged. Fer example, ye micht say "fixed typo" or "added mair information aneat sunflowers". Don't worry too much about this, or spend too much time thinking about it: just put in a short description of what you just changed. For example, you might say "fixed typo" or "added more information about sunflowers".

This ootline gets stored alangside yer eedit, n permits fawk tae keep track o chynges in the wiki mair effecteevelie.

Luikower
It's ae guid idea tae uise the "$int-showpreview" button tae see whit yer chynge will luik like, afore ye hain it. This is forby relatit til keepin track o chynges cause ilka time ye hain, this is displeyed til ithers aes ae separate chynge. This isn't sommit tae fash aneat ower muckle, bit it's guid tae get intil the habit o eleeminatin mistaks in yer ain wairk, bi uisin ae luikower afore hainin, in steid o hainin, than haein tae dae anither eedit jist tae mak yin or mair smaa corrections. 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, then having to do another edit just to make one or more minor corrections.

Shaw chynges
Anither optie is the "$int-showdiff" button that permits ye tae see the differances atween the Nou version n yer eedited version.

Protected pages
Pages that are protected cannot be edited by anyone except users of a specific group. Protected pages will instead display "View source" instead of edit. In that case, to edit a protected page, contact a user who has permission to edit the page. The default protection levels are as follows:


 * None (allow all users)
 * Autoconfirmed (prevent edits by new and unregistered users)
 * Sysop (prevent edits by all users except administrators)

Ither types o eeditin
Wi wiki eedits ye can stairt ae new page, muiv (or rename) ae page, or even delyte ae page:



Mynd that ye shid aye ettle tae impruiv the oweraw contents o the wiki wi yer eedits.
