I know a new GUI is being worked on. For the moment I hacked the
following JavaScript suggestion:

This adds a "how?" link into the "edit" tab, and launches a floating
panel with some extremely general content:

Never mind the wording, the color scheme, or important points I missed :-)
If that were added for all anons by default, it might save the willing
and able some grief.
Just a thought.
Great suggestion. One of the repeated sentiment from the study participants
was "what is the editing process". This will give a quick overview to
anons.
Will you post your idea to our project page? :-)
