* '''Policies''' define Wikipedia's fundamental principles. '''Guidelines''' recommend how to apply them and how to provide general consistency for readers.
You can edit other people's work, they will edit yours. If your edits are undone, don't take offence - it is just part of the wiki process.
* '''Content''' – Articles should be neutral and contain only information and opinions that already exist in reliable sources.
* '''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.''
'''Do's:'''
* Use the [[WP:HD|Help desk]] for problems or even uncertainties
* Fill in the edit-summary box when making an edit
* Communicate on a talk page about changes, concerns or contentions
