Wikipedia traditionally used a Source Editor interface which makes use of HTML markup.

Now there is a WYSIWYG 'Visual Editor' interface (What You See Is What You Get) that is makes use of dropdown menus similar to if you were using mS Word, Wordpress blogs etc.

This video shows how to switch on the Visual Editor in your Preferences menu.
