Background
This challenge pulls together your skills with both WikiPathways and the pathway editing tool. Mastery of these tools is essential to sharing the pathway information you collect and curate. We will use the tutorial pathway you uploaded earlier, but the same steps apply to editing any pathway at WikiPathways.
Challenge
Make an edit to your tutorial pathway at WikiPathways. You will need your username and password to update WikiPathways from the editor tool. You will also need to know the WPID of your pathway.
- Launch PathVisio. To open your pathway, go to Plugins > WikiPathways > Search. Type in the WPID for the pathway in the Keyword Search tab and click Enter. When the search results load, double-click the entry for your pathway to open it.
- Once you have your pathway loaded, make a change... any change. For example, move nodes around, change labels, etc.
- Find the WikiPathways entry in the Plugins menu and select Update.
- Enter your username and password for WikiPathways.
- Enter a comment to summarize your edits. Note: this comment will be recorded on the Pathway Page as part of the history of the pathway at WikiPathways. See History section.
- Done! Check out your changes at WikiPathways and verify your work below.
