==Background==
In a website, it consists of a bar at the top of the page, which contains the language section and the users section, whose condition is whether the account is created. At the bottom of the title of the article, it contains view modes like Read, View source, and View history. Users can interact with the view mode of the article they want. In the history section of an article on MediaWiki, it lists users who modified an article by dates, bytes, byte increments, and so on. 
The MediaWiki software can contain articles, categories, and templates, which allow users to design articles easier. 
==Editor==
In the editor of MediaWiki, there are two types of editors that users can switch views between: Visual editing and Source editing. The syntax of the source code of the article is similar to HTML, and it features tags to insert sentences, paragraphs, or objects if needed.
