Help:SourceEditor/User guide

<translate> The source editor, unlike the visual editor, allows you to edit the wiki markup directly.</translate> <translate> It also includes a <tvar|1>Template:Ll</> that adds a toolbar to make it easier to format wiki markup.</translate>

<translate> If you would like to try the source editor without editing an article, [<tvar|url>https://celeste.ink/wiki/Celeste_Wiki:Sandbox?action=edit</> here is a page] where you can freely test it.</translate> <translate> You don't need an account to use the source editor on that page.</translate>

Opening the source editor[edit source]

</translate>

To edit a page using the source editor, press on the "Template:Int" tab, if visual editor is disabled on default, at the top of the page.

Pressing on the "Template:Int" tab will open the visual editor.

The menu contains most of the possible text formatting methods and some additional functions that, for one reason or another, were not included in the main panel. Therefore, initially we will describe both panels at once.
