Actually, Gregory Kohs is 100% correct.

I envy those who don't know how to edit Wikipedia. It is too commonly a vile snake-pit of power-hungry administrators who know nothing of building a knowledge resource -- you really are better off just avoiding it altogether. So, I appreciate your plea for help from others.

Hi Amanda,
It has already been changed, so there isn't any work left to do! However, you can learn how to edit a wikipage without too much effort.
The header of each section has a button that says edit off to the right side of the page. Clicking that will take you to a textbox that might look overwhelming! There are lots of little symbols like [[ ]], ==, '' and etc. Those are just for headers, making font bold, and different formatting things. You don't need to worry about them to make small changes to blocks of text that are already there.
If you want to start adding your own content instead of just changing what is there, you can practice on the sandbox page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sandbox) to play around with different formatting techniques without being worried about messing anything up.
Good luck!
