How you contribute to wikiHow As you read an article: If you disagree with something, click the “edit” tab above the article and fix the mistake. The wikiHow policy is “be Bold,” but also be civil. If you are unsure of something, click on the “Discuss” tab and ask your question. Someone may clarify for you or conclude that it is a mistake and must be fixed. Wikis use a relatively simple syntax code. If you would like to practice how to properly structure your edits, you may experiment at: http://www.wikihow.com/Sandbox.http://www.wikihow.com/Sandbox Create your own article using the link in the top right corner.
