Trouble editing Wikipedia?

If you're having trouble, there are plenty of ways to ask for help, and people who are computer-literate will help you out. Next time you need help, simply edit your talk page (easy to find at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Mytalk or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Michael_combs) and add the text {{helpme}} followed by your question. It's hard to balance easy editing with a powerful wiki platform, but there are always people who are willing to help you out if you have a problem and are polite and friendly like everyone should be. :)

In this case, what you could have done would have been to click the "+" tab at the top of Talk:Homelessness and left a comment saying that the section could be more clear. I've made an edit to carry out your suggestion.

You should probably see a tab at the top of the page saying "edit this page", and each section title should have an "[edit]" link to its right, to be able to edit. To comment, you edit talk pages, by clicking on the "discussion" tab at the top of the page and there either clicking the "edit this page" or "+" link, where the "+" link is for a new topic. If you need any further help, please contact me and I'll help you out as soon as I notice your comment. Nihiltres^{t.l} 03:39, 21 November 2007 (UTC) (cross-posted to user's talk page)

Homelessness is semi-protected due to vandalism, so accounts must be 4 days old to edit it and your new account would not have edit links. Nihiltres and I have edited it [1]. It already linked Single Room Occupancy before but the link text only said SRO. PrimeHunter (talk) 03:50, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
