Summary
Review of what you've learned
VisualEditor is an intuitive way of editing Wikipedia. This tutorial introduces the basics of using VisualEditor. Full instructions can be found in the VisualEditor user guide. VisualEditor is enabled by default for accounts created since September 2015, and can be enabled for earlier accounts through the Editing tab of Preferences.
VisualEditor is still in development and so has some limitations and bugs. Most notably, it is available for article pages, but not talk pages. If you spot any problems, you can leave comments and suggestions at the Feedback page.
Opening VisualEditor
To edit a page using VisualEditor, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the page. (A long page may take a few seconds to load.)
You can also open VisualEditor by clicking on the "edit" link on each section of an article.
