Using wikEd can help in editing aquaticdatabase.com pages. You can install wikEd by following the instructions below. Currently WikEd does not work with IE7. It is recommended you use it with Firefox.

1. Log in under your username

2. If you are on the English Wikipedia click the following link to edit your User:YourUsername/monobook.js page: Special:Mypage/monobook.js, otherwise open the respective page by hand

3. If you are not using the default skin Monobook (see your preferences) then you have to replace monobook.js in the page name by the used skin, e.g. User:YourUsername/cologneblue.js for the Cologne Blue skin (see Wikipedia:Monobook for details)

4. Add the following code to that edit page:

// install [[User:Cacycle/wikEd]] in-browser text editor
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="'
+ 'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Cacycle/wikEd.js'
+ '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></script>');

If there is already code on your User:YourUsername/monobook.js page, please make sure not to paste the installation code between /*...*/ tags.

5. Save the page

6. Refresh your browser's cache: hold down Shift while clicking Reload (or press Ctrl-Shift-R)

7. The wikEd logo should now be displayed on top of every page next to the log out link
