Help:Tutorial/Edit an article
From Civicwiki
This tutorial presents the mechanics of editing (or creating) an article. If you are creating an article, and it is your first, please read about creating your first article. Civicwiki has attempted to make editing (and creating) articles easy.

- There will be instances in which you will want to catalog an article under more than one category. That is discussed below. Using the category selection box on the form, you may only select one category.
