For example, the caret character () would be encoded in a URL as 5E.

This will bring you to a page with a text box containing the editable text of that page.

You could open the sandbox in a separate window or tab to be able to see both this text and your tests in the sandbox.).

You may use shorthand to describe your changes, as described in the legend, and when finished, press preview to see how your changes will look.

Then press Save. Depending on your system, pressing Enter while the edit box is not active (when there is no typing cursor in it) may have the same effect as pressing the Save button.

This way, you can also keep a local backup copy of the pages you authored so that you can make changes offline.

Some text editors can be specially adapted to edit Wikipedia articles: see Wikipedia:syntax highlighting.

Clicking Save page again will cause the edit to be repeated, which can be disastrous when doing section edits.

You may want to install SafariNoTimeout, a free extension that will increase the 60-second timeout to 10 minutes.

Alternatively, the Safari plug-in Saft also allows you to alter the timeout, although it is not free.

Minor edits generally mean spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text.

It is possible to hide minor edits when viewing Wikipedia:Recent Changes.

Marking a significant change as a minor edit is considered bad behavior, and even more so if it involves the deletion of some text.

If one has accidentally marked an edit as minor, the person should edit the source once more, mark it major (or, rather, ensure that the check-box for This is a minor edit is not checked), and, in the summary, state that the previous change was a major one.

In the right column, you can see how those effects were achieved.

In other words, to make text look like it looks in the left column, type it in the format you see in the right column.

If you want to try out things without danger of doing any harm, you can do so in the Sandbox.

Matches must be exact in terms of spelling, case and punctuation.

Links to non-existent sections arent broken; they are treated as links to the top of the page.

The next time you open the edit box you will see the expanded piped link.

When previewing your edits, you will not see the expanded form until you press Save and Edit again.

The same applies to links to sections within the same page ( see previous entry ).

For example, REDIRECT United StatesHistory will redirect to the United States page, but not to any particular section on it.

This feature will not be implemented in the future, so such redirects should not be used.

Note the use of a space (not a pipe) to separate the URL from the link text in the named version.
