Source Editor
To use the source editor, click the "Edit source" button on the left of the search bar. This editor gives you access to the source content. If you are familiar with editing Wikipedia, you may prefer this over the Visual Editor.

{{FlagLink|link = ''link''}}

Infoboxes
Infoboxes are the tables of information on the right of most pages. For this wiki, they typically have some of the most important information about a country, language, content creator, etc. They can be hard to create. To make things easier for the editor, templates are used for almost all Infoboxes. Listed below are some Infobox templates that you can use for the page you want to create. All you have to do is copy and paste the necessary box, then ad any of the optional parameters you see fit. Finally, make the parameters equal to your specifications.
