wikiHow is a wiki, so anyone can edit and save changes to an unprotected page. When you have saved your first edit, you have become a wikiHow editor! It's easy to edit a wikiHow article - just follow these instructions:

[edit] Steps

Click on Preview, at the bottom of the article, to review each succeeding version of your article. Submit only the final draft of your work. Any text that is red in color indicates an error that is in need of correction.
Write a note in the Edit Summary, at the bottom of the article, to clarify your improvement.
Click on Save Page, at the bottom of the article, to save your changes.
Click on Recent Changes, in the column to the left, to see if your changes have passed through the patrol.
