On every knot page there are a number of "named editing hooks"; links bearing names such as [[{{SERVER}}{{localurl:5_1 Further Notes and Views|action=edit}}|Edit 5_1 Further Notes and Views]], which contain the explicit name of the knot being studied. Clicking on a named editing hook allows you to edit (wiki-style) the section that follows it on the knot page. Just for fun, add your name in the obvious place using [[{{SERVER}}{{localurl:5_1 Further Notes and Views|action=edit}}|Edit 5_1 Further Notes and Views]] and see how it affect the knot page [[5_1]].

Knot pages on The Knot Atlas can be modified in three ways:

  • Beginner. Only the knot page being viewed is modified, and only in certain specific places.
  • Intermediate. These are modifications that effect the way all knot pages (or sometimes just all knot pages of a given class) are displayed, but no new "per knot" data is introduced.
  • Expert. Introduces new invariants, pictures or data on all knot pages.
