Let's use Barack Obama's wikipedia article as an example, so in other to edit Barack Obama's article using our phone, go to the address bar tap on it, a share and a pencil tool will pop-up, click on the pencil tool and go behind the article name and put #/editor/all or let me put it into context thus Barack_Obama#/editor/all, to make full edit on the go, also the other way is by clicking the edit button on the Barack Obama's page which enables you edit a session. You go to the address bar, tap on it which ones again displays the share and pencil tool, you click on the pencil tool which displays the address bar ones again but this time it will be like this Barack_Obama#/editor/0, what you need to do is to replace the '0' with 'all', then after that you can start editing your full article on the go.

Uprising Man: I predicted the future just with an edit and it happened real time, Edith: I will be around during activities like this to do more edit during meetups, DaSupremo: The secrete of my adventure is pretty much simple, thus; keeping on editing and you'll win more. music credit Jayso & Sarkodie (Pizza & Burger)
