help on the editor itself? (vs. wikitext)
[edit]The page is called "Editing help," not "Wikitext help," and I came here because I was editing another page and found to my surprise that typing ⌘F (I'm on a Mac) didn't let me search the page's text, but instead seemed to insert something into it. So I was looking for help on how to operate the actual editor, rather than on what content to put in the page. I know this isn't the place to ask my specific question, but I'm using it as an example of a kind of help I think would be, uh, helpful. (P.S. Turned out I was really typing ⌘V, duh. I'm a self-taught typist. But I think the general point may still apply?) Briankharvey (talk) 03:05, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
Dash
[edit]It seems like instructions for em/en dashes should be on this page per WP:DASH. – yutsi (talk) 22:16, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
Add how to colour text
[edit]The info is not there SinplicityOverused598 (talk) 11:33, 26 September 2026 (UTC)
- You can add colored text pretty simply with the {{color}} template, or use color span tags (like
<span style="color:red">Text</span>which gives out Text). At least, that's what I know. ⚙ Crash >> Organhaver ( it / he | talk to me, maybe? ) 18:58, 26 September 2026 (UTC)
ADD HELP ON VISUAL EDITOR
[edit]Why not? SinplicityOverused598 (talk) 17:05, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- one of the very last links in the sea also section is to visual editor information not sure there's really a cheat sheet we can do that could be simpler than Help:Introduction to editing with VisualEditor/1 Moxy🍁 17:56, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
