I was trying to edit the Issues section of the naming-principles page:

<http://microformats.org/wiki/naming-principles#Issues>

First I clicked what I thought was the appropriate [edit] link, where I was told I needed to login. After logging in, I was offered a link back to the Main Page. This is issue #1: I should be offered a link back to the edit I was about to make.

So I used my back button to flip through my history to where I was and then reload the page with my shiny new logged-in cookie, only to discover I'd clicked the wrong [edit] link. I've done this before because some wikis put the link before the section and others put it after the section, so I went back and clicked the adjacent link. It turns out there is no link to edit the section. The edit page is here:

<http://microformats.org/wiki?title=naming- principles&action=edit&section=15>

The links on the article end at number 14 and don't quite line up to the nearby content. This is issue #2: there should be an edit link for every section, near the section.

These are both relatively simple to work around, but I wonder if we're maybe losing valuable input in the wiki due to such minor difficulties.

Peace,
Scott
