The "edit" button is found on the top right side of the page, next to the search bar. For people new to the MediaWiki suite, it is heavily recommended that you click the regular "edit" button and not the "edit source" button, as it is much more user friendly. When editing pages on the wiki, make sure that the information you are adding is relevant, accurate, and sourced (If possible). Remember, every edit helps!
