wikiHow is a wiki, so anyone can edit articles, even without an account! Here are a few instructions for making edits.

To step

1. Find an article you want to edit. Search wikiHow or browse category listings to find what you want to work on, if you haven't already. If you found an article through an internet search engine, you can click on the article title to go to the full page of the article.
2. click on the link edit. On a computer (that is, not in the mobile version but in the desktop version of the website) you will find the link edit right below the wikiHow logo, in the top left corner of the page, next to the link Article. You will also find separate links edit in each section, showing you the exact section you want to edit. On the wikiHow mobile site, you can click the pencil icon above the section title.
   • You don't need to have an account to perform an operation. However, it is recommended that you create an account to make edits, because that way you can discuss edits with others through your talk pages and email.
3. Edit the article to improve its quality. Try to change the content so that the writing style and main arguments remain intact. But you can also take radical action if things are not right!
   • Read more about writing a wikiHow article for directions on wikiHow syntax (for inserting notes, links, sub-steps, and the like).
4. click on Preview at the bottom of the screen to see what your changes will look like in the browser.
   • click on Amendments to see what you have changed from the existing page. By on Amendments Clicking does not save your edit at first.
5. Describe your edit. By briefly describing your edit, you help wikiHow proofreaders determine whether to keep your edits. For example, write "I corrected a mistake in a formula".
6. click on To publish to save your edit.
