#Start the editing proces by pressing the "Edit" tab on top of the article. (see figure 3) Is there no edit-tab? then you need to login or create an account (see step 1).#The wiki-code (the language of websites) of the page is displayed. (see figure 4) It is a bit like HTML, but has some differences as well. For example, if you want to make a section heading, this should be entered like "==Section Heading==". If this is your first experience with wiki-code, you can learn the most important things about it [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_edit here.], and of course you can also study the text of some of the other pages. A [[List of functions|list of editing functions]] is also available.#You can now change the text. Please remember that the best articles are a fair balance of opinions, where both arguments in favour and against an idea have their place. If you don't agree to the content of a page, for example, you should not just delete it; instead you should add arguments of your own, for example in a separate section "Criticm", or as local experiences. When in doubt, please contact the Akvopedia Editor (m.t.westra[[Image:At.png|14px]]akvo.org). #[[Editing an Akvopedia page#Adding pictures|Below]] you find information on how to add a picture, a movie or a link to an external website.
