This section will guide you through the absolute basics of being a wiki editor, with links to more detailed help pages from the MediaWiki software. | |||
You can try out the editing functions by freely editing the [[Help:Sandbox|Sandbox]] page, where you don't need to worry about breaking things. | |||

Also, try not to create pages for very narrowly focused topics.

Since a wiki hosts community-curated content, it's crucial for editors to communicate with each other, especially when there's disagreement on the content of a page. | Since a wiki hosts community-curated content, it's crucial for editors to communicate with each other, especially when there's disagreement on the content of a page. | ||
Of course you can always use your favorite social media platform (Twitter, Facebook, reddit) to talk to other FeministWiki editors, if they have an account on the same platform. Otherwise you might also be able to find them on the FeministWiki web forum, on the FeministWiki chat platform, or you could send an e-mail to their FeministWiki e-mail address (like "janedoe@feministwiki.org"). See the related help pages on how to use those methods. | |||
However on the wiki, there is also a primitive but tightly integrated way to talk to each other: talk pages. There are article talk pages and user talk pages. | |||

Every page on the FeministWiki has an associated Discussion page, also called a Talk page. If you make a change to an article, but someone objects and reverts the change, you can write something on the discussion page of the article to hopefully reach a mutual agreement on how the content should be. | Every page on the FeministWiki has an associated Discussion page, also called a Talk page.

When you've created a new topic on the talk page to discuss something with other editors, you might want to make sure that they're notified of this. See the next section for instructions on how to directly contact an editor, so you can make sure that they see the topic you started in the talk page. | When you've created a new topic on the talk page to discuss something with other editors, you might want to make sure that they're notified of this.

=== | === Directly contacting another editor === | ||
While the FeministWiki infrastructure offers many ways for members to keep in touch (email, forum, chat), the wiki also has its own system for talking to another editor, which might be the best option when you want to talk about something on the wiki, especially since you can't know whether the other editor uses any of the additional communication methods offered by the FeministWiki. | While the FeministWiki infrastructure offers many ways for members to keep in touch (email, forum, chat), the wiki also has its own system for talking to another editor, which might be the best option when you want to talk about something on the wiki, especially since you can't know whether the other editor uses any of the additional communication methods offered by the FeministWiki. | ||
