Undo
What do you do when you have covered up the edit this page box and you can't get back in to correct the page? You have edit tab at the very top of the page next to talk and history.

If you cover up the save button at the bottom of the page, Click the History tab the top of the page and do a "updo."

Finding coding problems
Here is another way to find where coding problems might exist in an article. Type the coding comment tags at the beginning and end of the problem article like so:.

When you save the page, the page will be blank, but do not panic the coding is still there. Next move the opening comment <!-- tag down the page to maybe the next paragraph and then save. The material above the <!-- will appear again.

If there are no problems in the reappeared material, keep moving the <!-- tag down the page and keep saving until the error shows itself.

You now know where the problem is. After you have fixed the problem, be sure to remove the comment tags.
