Editing in Visual Editor:
Visual editor is enabled on this wiki by default. This allows for users to more easily edit pages using common tools and a more intuitive user interface, displaying how edits will be represented in real time. This is the recommended route for most edits, and for beginners to editing this wiki.
The visual editor can be used by selecting the left-most pen icon on a page, or by clicking the "Visual Editor" on the top right of the page toolbar. If in the source code editor, click the pencil icon and choose the Visual Editor option.

To choose the Code Editor, click the right-most pencil icon by a heading, or choose the "Code Editor" option on the top right of the page toolbar.

Using Templates:
There are two templates currently in service for adding webcomics with minimal formatting, [Template:Webcomic] and [Template:Webcomic.NSFW]. These two templates allow for the insertion of new entries with minimal fuss by simply filling in parameters in the template.
If using the visual editor, simply click the drop-down "Insert" menu on the top left of the page, then choose the "Template" option. Search for "webcomic" and choose either the standard or the NSFW option. Fill in the parameters, and click apply. If you want to insert alt links or tags, add them manually after the template. To edit the template, click on it and select "edit template." To delete the template, click on it and use the backspace or delete key to remove it.
