Editing Ones Own Definition Contributions

Has anyone discovered how to edit a post of one's own making?

I found the HELP page rather intriguing ... go ahead ... and find out for yourself.

In the meantime, I might actually have to pull up the links Tomás emailed us.

ANSWER TO EDITING A POST

Search for term in upper right-hand corner search box. It will take you to the definition page with an Edit button at the top of the page.

Expansion to Editing a Page

Once you're logged in, every page has an "edit" tab on the top right. That will allow you to edit the page, even a "Discussion" page like this one.

This is a great page showing how to upload and display images. With video tutorial and all. Picture tutorial Tom (talk) 19:53, 8 November 2012 (PST)

No. of Terms in the draft HGS Glossary outline

There are 1240 terms in the hardcopy draft HGS Glossary outline I sent everyone. I wonder if there is a way of keeping track of the number of terms uploaded? I envision two big boxes side by side showing 1240 in one box and the number of terms uploaded in the box next to it. Actually, there should be a way to do this because each term has its own page so somewhere in the system you'd think there was a running tally of pages ... hmmmm. More to investigate. I could tuck this tally away on 'My Talk' if this is just of interest to me.
