Help:Contents/tabs

When moving around the Cumuls Wiki a number of 'tabs' may appear at the top of the page

Discussion

Use this page to discuss a page, perhaps suggesting a change to the content of a page. Others can then add their comments and you can agree how to move forward.

If adding text, it may be useful to add your username and the time of the comment. Do this by adding four ~ symbols at the end of your comment

View Source

If you are not logged in, you can select this tab to see the raw text that has been formatted for you.

Edit

If you are logged in, and have permission, you can modify the contents of the whole page by selecting this tab.

History

This will show the history of how a page evolved. You can compare any two versions of the page, for example the current and the previous to show all the changes. This is useful when reviewing someone elses edits.

Protect

By default most pages can be edited by all registered users. You may wish to protect a page. You would not normally use this other than on your own homepage

Watch

If you are interested in Watching a page, or making it a favourite, click this tab. You can then quickly come back to it by using the 'my watchlist' at the top of the page. This tab is only availble if you are logged in

View soruce

You can view the source, or WikiText, of a page to see how it has been written. If you are logged in you will not see this tab, but should use Edit instead.
