To add a new image (or another type of media file) to the page, press the Inmàgine e file multimediâli icon (a picture of mountains) in the Inserìsci menu. The image will be added wherever your cursor is.

---

Pressing the Inmàgine e file multimediâli icon opens a dialog that automatically searches Wikimedia Commons and your local wiki for media files related to the title of the page you are editing.

---

After the image you selected is inserted into the page, another dialog will open. This dialog allows you to add and edit the caption of the image. The caption can contain formatting and links.

---

The media dialog also allows you to add alternative text captions, to help users who use screen readers, or who have disabled image display.

---

You can also set various parameters for the image in the Inpostaçioìn avansæ window. These include the alignment, the type, and size of the image.

---

When you are done, press Àpprica modìfiche to close the dialog and return to editing the page.

---

For an existing image, you can add or edit a caption or other settings by pressing on the image, then pressing on the Inmàgine e file multimediâli icon that appears below the picture.

You can upload images from a tab in the media dialog, or by dragging and dropping a file into the editor, or by pasting an image from your clipboard.

---

Press the Càrega tab and select an image from your computer. You can type the file name, or drag an image into the box. If you dragged and dropped an image directly into the editor, or pasted one from your clipboard, this tab will open automatically.

---

You need to describe the image and add categories to it so that other people can find it.

---

The image will be inserted into the page when you are done.

To add a new gallery, press the Galerîa icon (a set of photos) on the Inserìsci menu. (If you don't see this icon on that menu, then your local wiki has decided to delay implementing this functionality in the visual editor.)

---

To edit an existing gallery in the visual editor, press that gallery. Then, near the bottom of the gallery, press the gallery icon (a set of photos). This brings up the gallery editor, with the full list of images included in the gallery.

The gallery editor is currently a simple box that allows you to edit existing galleries using wikitext markup. To add a new image to an existing gallery, type the file name, followed by a bar (|) and the caption for that image. You must put each image in the gallery on its own line. You can also edit this list to remove or rearrange images or to change captions.

To add a template to a page, place your cursor at the position on the page where you want the template to be inserted. Then open the Inserìsci menu and select " Template". Alternatively, type two curly brackets {{ to open the same dialog.

Find the template you want to insert by typing either its name or a relevant keyword. Results containing the search term in either the name or description will display in a dropdown. This should help you find a relevant template, even if you don’t know its exact name.

There are a number of other ways to discover templates that may be useful to you: you can mark some templates as your favorites, browse them by category, or view your wiki's list of featured templates. Documentation about these features is available at Help:TemplateData/Template discovery .

You can also look for other wiki pages with similar content and view or edit their page source to see which templates are in use. When you find the desired template’s name, you can type it into this field to insert it here.

Screenshot of the template search field in the Visual Editor

---

You can also edit a template that’s already on a page. When you select the template you want to edit, it turns blue, and a box appears displaying Template. Then select the Modìfica link or double click on the template itself to open the template.

Screenshot of the VisualEditor interface with a template selected

---

Some templates are not visible to someone reading a page. In the visual editor, such hidden templates are still shown so that you can click and edit or delete them. The name of the template will be shown next to the puzzle icon and both will be grayed out.

Screenshot of hidden templates in the Visual Editor interface

---

You’ll see this dialog box when you’re adding a new template or editing one already in place. What you see in the box depends on whether the template in question contains TemplateData , helpful metadata added by other editors to make it easier to edit templates in the Visual Editor.

For templates that have some community-provided TemplateData, the VisualEditor displays a list of the named parameters and, often, descriptions and instructions explaining the meaning and required format for each parameter’s values.

Screenshot of template parameters in the Visual Editor interface

---

You can disable any optional parameter (which have blue checkboxes on the left side). If a parameter’s checkbox is grayed out and not clickable, the template requires that parameter, so it can’t be disabled.

When you insert a new template, you may find that some optional parameters are pre-selected. That means the author(s) of the template recommends the use of those parameters. It’s best to review all parameters that will be used in a template to ensure you understand their use.

Clicking an unchecked parameter adds it to the template. Clicking a parameter that’s already been added takes you to the parameter’s input field.

Some template parameters will show as "deprecated". Don’t use deprecated parameters when inserting a template; they’re only visible to you because those parameters are in use on older pages where this template was included.

If you’re inserting or editing a template whose author hasn’t laid out its parameters in TemplateData, it has what we call "undocumented" or "unnamed parameters". In these cases, you should consult the page for the template itself. There you can learn how to correctly employ and work with all of the template’s parameters. This includes learning the exact names of the parameters as written by the template author.

If you find in the documentation that the template expects parameters without names, fill in numbers as placeholders for the parameter names using the undocumented parameter input, then add text to the values you want to provide as you normally would.

• first unnamed parameter: "1"
• first unnamed parameter’s value: "en_US"
• second unnamed parameter: "2"
• second unnamed parameter’s value: "yes"

In this example, the template in question lacks TemplateData but it was possible to autogenerate the parameters. This means that the undocumented parameters have already been added for you, but the names may not be easily understandable and the dialog cannot display any directions or descriptions. As a result the dialog box provides a link to the template’s documentation, which should help you deduce and fill in the template’s various parameters.

---

During editing, you may open template content consisting of multiple templates or a single template linked to some wikitext. This differs from the nested templates described below. In this case, the templates are better visualized as being stacked or connected.

This content often contains "unbalanced templates," templates which are incomplete on their own and need to be paired with some wikitext or another template in order to function.

These related pieces of template content must be created in wikitext, but can be edited in the VisualEditor. In these cases you will see a notice at the top of the dialog to signal the situation and a specialized toolbar will be visible at the bottom of the sidebar. There you can use the icon buttons to add additional templates, additional wikitext, delete elements or change their order.

Templates can include other templates as the value for parameters. You’ll recognize it when you see a parameter whose value contains the double curly braces ( {{ }} ) denoting a template.

The VisualEditor can’t present this template within a template (a nested template) using the editor’s easy-to-use interface, so if you want to nest a template yourself, you’ll need to understand how to add the template by hand in wikitext into the appropriate parameter field.

When you have finished editing a template, you can click Àpprica modìfiche. Then you can preview your edit and make sure it looks the way you want and expect.

You may also see an error message, which (like the other TemplateData mentioned above) is community-provided content and may vary in usefulness. You may need to consult the template’s own documentation to get to the bottom of some errors. If you’re still having trouble, consider posting about your problem on the template’s talk page.

---

To remove a template in the VisualEditor, click the template box. Press the Del or ← Backspace key on your keyboard. The template will disappear from the page.

When editing a template on a page using the VisualEditor on a mobile device, you’ll see that the sidebar starts out hidden. You can make it visible by pressing the "Show/hide options" button.

When you insert a template in a wiki page, its content and appearance are reevaluated every time the page loads, based on the template code and the values of its parameters. This means if someone updates the code of a template, then every page which uses that template will also get updated when they publish.

There’s another, much less common way to use templates, though, and that’s to substitute a template. Doing this permanently includes the template content just as it appears at the moment you insert it. It will not update if the template code is later changed.

Most users won’t ever need to resort to substitution. Substitution is typically only useful when you need to capture the exact appearance of one version of a template, such as when content is under development and needs evaluation.

To substitute a template in the VisualEditor, insert a template using the name syntax subst:<template name>. Then press the blue Azónzi button.

You can use the visual editor to create lists, or to change the format of an existing list. There are two types of lists: unordered (bullet) and ordered (numbered).

To start a new list, just press on one of the two menu items shown here. Or, if you already have typed the list (on separate lines), select (highlight) the list you have typed, then press on one of the menu items.

---

Shown here are examples of the two types of lists: unordered (bullet) and ordered (numbered).

---

If you want to change the indentation level of part of an existing list, select the part of the list that you want to change.

---

Then use the menu, or press the Tab key. (The Tab key increases indentation; use the shift key plus the Tab key to decrease indentation)

---

Here is the result of increased indentation.

---

You can even mix ordered (numbered) and unordered (bullet) lists, if the list items have different indentations.

You can use the visual editor to insert and change tables.

You can even import a table by dragging a comma-separated value (.csv) file from your computer into the main editing window.

---

When you press on "Table", in the Inserìsci menu, the visual editor inserts a blank four-by-four table.

Now the "Table" menu is available. From that menu, you can add a caption to the top of the table.

---

To select a cell, press it once.

---

To edit the contents of the cell (for example, to add content or to correct a spelling error), double press in the cell. Or you can select the cell and then press Return.

To end your editing of a cell, just press elsewhere.

---

You can add, move or delete a column or a row.

---

You can merge cells: Select them, then from the Table menu, press on "Merge cells".

---

If you merge cells, only the text in one cell is kept; any text in the other cells is deleted when you merge the cells. If you decide that you wanted some or all of the text that was deleted, use the Undo button, move or copy the text you want, then merge the cells again.

---

You can also split cells that were previously merged. All the content that was in the merged cell will remain in the first cell when you do the split. You can then cut and paste text to other cells, if you want.

To edit categories, on the Opçioìn pàgina menu, press the Categorîe item.

---

Pressing on Categorîe opens a dialog that lists existing categories and allows you to add new ones, and to delete existing categories.

---

To add a category for a page, type the name of the category into the field Azónzi 'na categorîa. As you type, the visual editor will search for possible matching, existing categories. You can either select an existing category, or you can add a category that doesn't yet have its own category page. (Until that category page is created, your new category will show as a red link after you publish all your editing changes.)

---

To remove an existing category, press on it and press on the Lêva icon (trash can) in the dialog that opens.

Pressing on a category also allows you to specify a sorting key for that specific category. Such a sorting key overrides the default sorting key.

---

Press Àpprica modìfiche when you are done editing categories to return to the page editor.

To edit a page's settings, press to open the Opçioìn pàgina menu, in the toolbar, and select the Inpostaçioìn da pàgina button.

---

The Inpostaçioìn da pàgina button opens a dialog that shows several options.

---

You can make a page a redirect to another page by checking the Rindirìssa sta pàgina a checkbox, and then typing the name of the page to which you want to send the reader who tries to go to the page that you are editing.

At the bottom is the option to prevent page renames from updating this redirect. This is very rarely used.

---

You can change whether the page shows a Table of Contents by selecting one of these three buttons. The default option is Se necesâio, which shows a Table of Contents if there are three or more headings.

---

You can make a page not show edit links next to each section header by checking this checkbox.

---

Press Àpprica modìfiche when you are done editing the Opçioìn pàgina to return to the page editor.

You can add and change maps. See Help:VisualEditor/Maps .

To add a new mathematical formula to the page, place your cursor where you want it to be inserted, and press on the Formula matemattica icon ("Σ") in the Inserìsci menu on the toolbar.

---

A window will open in which you can type the formula, using LaTeX syntax. the visual editor will update the formula as you type it, so you can see how it will look as you make changes. Once you are happy with the formula, press the Inserìsci button.

---

To edit an existing mathematical formula on the page, press on it and then press on the "Σ" icon that appears. This will open up the formula window, where you make changes.

---

Mathematical formulae can be placed inline or centered as a block.

To add a new musical notation to a page, place your cursor where you want the musical notation to be inserted. Then, from the "Insert" menu on the toolbar, press the "Musical notation" option.

---

This will open the "Musical notation" dialog. Here the notation can be edited by scale, either in ABC or in Lilypond format. You can also link the notation to an audio or MIDI file. Once you are finished, press the "Done" button to close the dialog and publish your changes.

Some items, such as association lists and poems, are not yet fully supported by the visual editor.

---

In most cases, the existing items can be edited, but new ones cannot be inserted in the visual editor.

Until they are fully supported, you can copy an existing one from another page, or edit the source wikitext directly.

---

To switch from the visual editor to the wikitext editor, press the [[ ]] button on the far right of the toolbar.

---

You'll see a diff. (If you pressed on Làscia pèrde e modìfiche, you'll just see wikitext, ready to edit with the wikitext editor.)

Scroll down, and you'll see the wikitext editing area.

---

You can also switch from the wikitext editor to the visual editor. To do that, press the pencil icon on the far right of the toolbar.
