* '''Policies''' define Wikipedia's fundamental principles. '''Guidelines''' recommend how to apply them and how to provide general consistency for readers.
<noinclude>
* '''Content''' – Articles should be neutral and contain only information and opinions that already exist in reliable sources.
{{Wikipedia:Help Project/Introduction to policies guidelines/TabsHeader|This=4}}
* '''Conduct''' – Be bold, and be civil. In a disagreement, assume good faith, and civilly discuss issues on talk pages until a consensus can be reached.

''For the next module, you can choose to learn either VisualEditor or Wiki Markup. VisualEditor is intuitive and works like a word processor. Wiki Markup, preferred by most editors, is more versatile and allows you to edit wikicode directly.''
You can edit other people's work, they will edit yours. If your edits are undone, don't take offense - it is just part of the wiki process. Here are some tips that will help when doing basic editing on Wikipedia:

* Stress too much about formatting at first, focus on getting the information clear, neutral and sourced
* Use multiple user accounts
* Edit war, like reverting others edits over and over - instead use the talk page
* Add anything you didn't personally write yourself (copyright is important!)
