In addition to using HTML elements directly in your MediaWiki pages, feel free to use common attributes like: If you find additional semantic HTML elements that seem to work just fine in MediaWiki pages, please add them. Here is a short list of common HTML tags that you may find useful (consult a good semantic HTML reference if you need more info about when to use which element). MediaWiki supports a lot of simple HTML markup which you should use to enhance the semantics of your wiki pages (for SEO and other related good reasons). This limitation is another reason to log in.
The reason for not allowing a user who is not logged in to mark an edit as minor is that vandalism could then be marked as a minor edit, in which case it would stay unnoticed longer. So any "real" change, even if it is a single word, should be flagged as a "major edit". A major edit is basically something that makes the entry worth revisiting for somebody who wants to watch the article rather closely. The rule of thumb is that edits consisting of spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a "minor edit". When to use this is somewhat a matter of personal preference. This feature is important, because users can choose to hide minor edits in their view of the Recent Changes page, to keep the volume of edits down to a manageable level. When editing a page, a logged-in user has the option of flagging the edit as a "minor edit".
A category tag in a template caching problem. Also it is sometimes needed to refresh the cache of some item in the database, see e.g. This allows an edit summary, and is useful for correcting a previous edit summary, or an accidental marking of a previous edit as "minor" (see below). If the wikitext is not changed no edit will be recorded and the edit summary is discarded.Ī dummy edit is a change in wikitext that has no effect on the rendered page, such as changing the number of newlines at some position from 0 to 1 or from 2 to 3 or conversely (changing from 1 to 2 makes a difference, see below).

These issues are handled automatically by the Mediawiki software if you edit the page online, retrieving and submitting the wikicode in the same text box. If someone has edited it since you copied the page, you'll have to merge their edits into your new version (you can find their specific edits by using the " diff" feature of the page history). It also allows you to make changes offline, but before you submit your changes, please make sure nobody else has edited the page since you saved your local copy (by checking the page history), otherwise you may accidently revert someone else's edits. This way, you can also keep a local backup copy of the pages you have edited. You may find it more convenient to copy and paste the text first into your favorite text editor, edit and spell check it there, and then paste it back into your web browser to preview. Depending on your system, pressing the "Enter" key while the edit box is not active (i.e., there is no typing cursor in it) may have the same effect as pressing "Save". Then write a short edit summary in the small text field below the edit-box and when finished press "Save". If you are not satisfied you can make more changes and preview the page as many times as necessary. Errors in formatting, links, tables, etc., are often much easier to discover from the rendered page than from the raw wikitext. For the special codes, see below.Īfter adding to or changing the wikitext it is useful to press "Preview", which produces the corresponding webpage in your browser but does not make it publicly available yet (not until you press "Save").
