'''[[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]]''' is a [[WYSIWYG|What You See Is What You Get]]-style editor for Wikipedia. It's very simple to learn. It is an alternative to the [[Help:Introduction_to_editing_with_Wiki_Markup|Source editor]], the primary editing interface which works more like a plain text file and allows you to directly edit the wiki markup text (wikitext). While VisualEditor is simpler to use, the Source editor can be more effective for some tasks.
'''Subject's complete name''' (birthdate &ndash; death) can be a lead-in to the '''subject's popular name'''. Describe the subject's nationality and profession(s) in which the subject is most notable. Provide a description of the subject's major contributions in the immediately relevant field(s) of notable expertise.

This tutorial introduces the basics of using VisualEditor. Full instructions can be found in the [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User guide|VisualEditor user guide]]. You can enable VisualEditor through the [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|Editing tab of Preferences]]: At "''Editing mode:''" select the dropdown "''Show me both editing tabs''". Then, ensure the "''Temporarily disable the visual editor while it is in beta''" box is not checked, and simply save your settings.
 
VisualEditor is still in [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Updates|development]] and so has [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor#Limitations|some limitations]] and bugs. Most notably, it is slower to load than editing the source code, and is available for article pages but not [[help:introduction to talk pages|talk pages]]. If you spot any problems, you can leave comments and suggestions at the [[Wikipedia: VisualEditor/Feedback|Feedback page]].
== Biography ==
Ensure that the following sections are organized by year.<ref name="example">Last, first (date). [https://example.com/ Name of page]. Page xx. Publisher: xxxx</ref>

=== Early life ===
=== Opening VisualEditor ===
Explain the subject's early life historically using a journalistic style.<ref name="example"/>
After you've enabled VisualEditor, you can edit any page that uses it by clicking on the "{{int:vector-view-edit}}" tab at the top of the page. (A long page may take a few seconds to load.)
 
You can also open VisualEditor by clicking on the "{{int:editsection}}" link on any section of an article. You can also toggle between using VisualEditor and Source Editor whilst editing most pages.
=== Marriage and children ===
}}<noinclude>
If the subject married and gave birth, describe the marriage and list their children.

If any, list the works organized by date of publication. See [[Charles Darwin]] for an example.
