* '''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.

===More information===
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.

''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.''
