AoPS Wiki:Tutorial

This AoPSWiki tutorial will help guide you through the process of learning to contribute to the AoPSWiki.

Getting Started

Click on the Edit button above an article while you are logged into the AoPSWiki. If the article is new, you can just start writing. If the article already exists, you will see the article text, Wikimedia syntax included. Write around or over the text to change the content of the article.

Wiki Syntax

First, while in edit mode, there is a control panel in the upper left of the text box. Hover your curser over the buttons to get an idea as to what they do.

Internal Links

Internal links are the heart of what makes a wiki.

Finding articles to edit

Contribute to recently changed articles is to click on the Special:Recentchanges (Recent Changes) link on the navigation tab at right. Go methodically through the articles, either contributing or adding broken links. Also see the AoPSWiki:Community_Portal (Community Portal).
