Editing Pages
For more, see TracWiki.
Note: You must be logged in before you can make any edits.
To the right of the title of every section of a wiki page is the edit button.Once you the edit page has been opened, you can improve and aspect of the section you have chosen to edit.
Editing wiki text is easy, using any web browser and a simple formatting system, rather than more complex markup languages like HTML. The reasoning behind its design is that HTML, with its large collection of nestable tags, is too complicated to allow fast-paced editing, and distracts from the actual content of the pages. Note though that Trac also supports HTML, reStructuredText and Textile as alternative markup formats.
If you would like practice editing pages or you want to test a feature, try out the SandBox. For help with the wiki formatting system, see WikiFormatting.
