This is one of Pikmin Fanon's help pages and is meant to aid users by improving their ability to positively contribute to the wiki. Expanding pages such as this with additional information is always welcome.

-* The editing toolbar at the top of the editing box allows you to format your text. The large white section is the editing box itself, where you can add, change, or remove content. The save toolbar at the bottom lets you preview and save your changes.

-* Once the edit box opens, you can start typing. Remember that anything you save will appear immediately on the wiki, so it may be a good idea to preview your edits before saving. Don't forget to click "{{MediaWiki:Savearticle/en}}" before leaving the page!
-* If you would like to view your changes before saving, simply click the "{{MediaWiki:Showpreview/en}}" button, which will load a preview screen above the editing space. '''It is very important to still hit save!'''
-* The save toolbar also contains a summary box, which allows you to leave a note summarizing the edits you have made.
-It's easy, so have a go! You can't break Wikia, so if you find something that can be improved, either in content, grammar or formatting, go ahead and fix it!
