Atkinspedia:Editing the main page
From Atkinspedia
The Main Page is updated by editing a number of pages in the Template namespace that are transcluded onto the main page.
The Main Page and all the templates have been protected for many years, and can only be edited by administrators. Images are also temporarily protected while they are featured on the Main Page. Changes can be suggested on Talk:Main Page if you do not have administrator access.
Alternatively, you can edit the table-free version of the main page.
Each section has its own guidelines that you should follow before editing it. These guidelines will be found on that section's talk pages, on Talk:Main Page, or on other guidelines pages.
Click the Main Page cache purge whenever a change has been made to any of the template pages displayed on the Main Page. This clears the Main Page's cache (located on the Wikimedia servers) so that non-logged-in users can see the update.
The guidelines that were written for the old main page can be found at Atkinspedia:Selected Articles on the Main Page.
