Editing most Wikipedia pages is not very difficult at all. Simply click on the "edit this page" tab at the top of a Wikipedia page (or on a section-edit link). This will bring you to a new page with a text box containing the editable text of the original page.

Can you edit a Wikipedia page?
Who writes the entries? Anyone can - it's open to all and can be modified and edited by anyone. However, Wikipedia's administrators protect some pages from direct editing if they believe they are regularly subjected to "vandalism" - the addition of abusive language or falsehoods.
Is Wikipedia free to edit?
Wikipedia is free content that anyone can edit, use, modify, and distribute. This is a motto applied to all Wikimedia Foundation projects: use them for any purpose as you wish.
How do I permanently edit Wikipedia?
To edit the whole page, click the "edit" tab at the top. To edit just one section, click the "edit" link to the right of the section heading.
Why can't I edit Wikipedia?
What does this mean? What is a block? A block is a measure used to protect Wikipedia from possible improper activity in breach of editorial policies. It prevents users from editing, renaming, creating, or otherwise contributing to pages on Wikipedia, either across Wikipedia or on certain pages.
