How to Edit Wikipedia: Online tutorials

Thanks for your interest in joining the ILAE Wikipedia Project. We urge you to go through the following online course. It is simple, easy, and does not take much time.

The first step would be to create a Wikipedia account in case you do not have one already. We prefer the username to reflect the real life identity. This is important for you to receive credits for your work.
