વિકિપીડિયા એ વિકિ છે, અર્થાત કોઈપણ તેના રક્ષિત ન કરાયેલા કોઈપણ પાનાને સંપાદિત કરી શકે છે અને તુરંત જ સૌ વાચકો માટે લેખને સુધારી શકે છે. આ કરવા માટે તમારે નામાંકન કરાવવાની કોઈ જરૂર નથી. અહીં સંપાદન કરનાર કોઈપણને વિકિપીડિયન (ગુજરાતી વિકિ પર વિકિમિત્ર) તરીકે ઓળખવામાં આવે છે અને, તેમણે કરેલું સંપાદન કેટલું ગૌણ કે તુચ્છ જણાય છે એના કોઈ મહત્વ વગર, સંપાદક ગર્વ લઈ શકે છે કે પોતે વિકિપીડિયાના ઘડતરમાં પોતાનું યોગદાન આપ્યું છે. આ તમામ સંપાદનો ઉમેરાય છે ! વિકિપીડિયા સંપાદન માટે બે પદ્ધતિનો ઉપયોગ કરે છે: નવું વિઝ્યુલસંપાદક અને પરંપરાગત વિકિમાર્કઅપ (વિકિટેક્સ્ટ). આ પાના પર વિકિટેક્સ્ટ સંપાદક (જે વધુ વપરાય છે) સાથે સુસંગત માહિતી આપી છે. વિઝ્યુલસંપાદક દ્વારા સંપાદનની સૂચનાઓ જાણવા માટે જુઓ વિઝ્યુલસંપાદક વપરાશ માર્ગદર્શિકા. _{(જો કે હાલ આ પાનાઓ પૂર્ણપણે બનેલા ન પણ મળે)}

Some pages are protected from editing. These pages are denoted by a lock icon on the top right of the page and have a View source tab instead of an Edit tab. You can still edit these pages indirectly, by submitting an "edit request" – an editor with the ability to edit the protected page will respond to your request. You can submit a request by clicking on the View source tab on that page and using the "Submit an edit request" link at the bottom right.

Note: You can use the sandbox to experiment with page editing.

Editing

Editing most Wikipedia pages is simple. Simply click on the "edit" tab at the top of a Wikipedia page (or on a section-edit link). This will take you to a new page with a text box containing the editable text of the current page.

Edit box showing the wiki markup as of August 2nd 2012.

In this box, you can type in the text that you want to add, using wiki markup to format the text and add other elements like images and tables. The toolbar above the text box can help with formatting. A quick reference to wiki markup can be opened by clicking 'Help' in this toolbar.

Never start a line with a leading space unless you want the special formatting it causes. Paragraphs can be separated with a blank line. The Wikipedia community has developed style guidelines to make articles and facts appear in a standardized form, and Wikipedia easier to use as a whole.

If you add information to a page, please provide references, as unreferenced statements are subject to removal. ઢાંચો:EditOptions When you have finished editing, you should write a short edit summary in the small field below the edit-box. You may use shorthand to describe your changes, as described in the legend. To see how the page looks with your edits, press the "Show preview" button. To see the differences between the page with your edits and the previous version of the page, press the "Show changes" button. If you're satisfied with what you see, be bold and press the "Save page" button. Your changes will immediately be visible to all Wikipedia users.

Note: Do not sign the Edit Summary line with your ~~~~ signature, as it does not work there.

Talk (discussion) pages

Talk pages have a "new section" tab to start a new section, in addition to a tab to edit the whole page. Sign your contributions to a Talk page by using four tildes (~~~~), which produces your username and a time/date stamp.

Minor edits

A check to the "minor edit" box signifies that only superficial differences exist between the version with your edit and the previous version: typo corrections, formatting and presentational changes, rearranging of text without modifying content, etc. A minor edit is a version that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. The "minor edit" option is one of several options available only to registered users. Editors should not feel that marking a change as minor devalues their effort.

Major edits

Further information: Wikipedia:Editing policy#Talking and editing

All editors are encouraged to be bold, but there are several things that a user can do to ensure that major edits are performed smoothly. Before engaging in a major edit, a user should consider discussing proposed changes on the article discussion/talk page. During the edit, if doing so over an extended period, the {{In use}} tag can reduce the likelihood of an edit conflict. Once the edit has been completed, the inclusion of an edit summary will assist in documenting the changes. These steps will help all to ensure that major edits are well received by the Wikipedia community.

A major edit should be reviewed to confirm that it is consensual to all concerned editors. Therefore, any change that affects the meaning of an article is major (not minor), even if the edit is a single word.

There are no necessary terms to which you have to agree when doing major edits, but the recommendations above have become best practice. If you do it your own way, the likelihood of your edits being reedited may be higher.

When performing a large edit, it is suggested that you periodically, and before pressing 'save page', copy your edits into an external text editor (preferably one without formatting, such as Notepad). This ensures that in the case of a browser crash you will not lose your work. If you are adding substantial amounts of work, it is also a good idea to save changes in stages.

"View source" – protected pages

Some pages are protected from editing. These pages have a View source tab instead of an Edit tab. You can still edit these pages indirectly, by submitting an "edit request" – an editor with the ability to edit the protected page will respond to your request. You can submit a request by clicking on the View source tab on that page and using the "Submit an edit request" link at the bottom right.

Adding references

There is the Wikipedia:refToolbar 2.0 tool built into the top of the edit box that makes it easier to add and properly format references. The tool can use a single piece of data, such as the PMID or ISBN, to fill in the rest of the details. This tool however only works occasionally. A more reliable tool can be found here: [૧], but currently this is broken.

Wiki markup

Wiki markup is the information not displayed in the finished article. Wiki markup is only visible in the edit section and instructs the software on the display of the article. A basic list of Wiki markup can be found on the cheatsheet.
