How to edit pages
Just click "Edit this page" at the bottom of the page, and start typing. When you've finished, click "preview" to see how it will look (scroll down; the preview is below the editing form), and when you're happy with it, click "commit".
How to make pages
To create a new page, just click "Create Page" in the top right-hand corner. This will give you a box to type the name of your page, then click "Go" and it will put you at an editing form where you can start typing.
Another way to create a new page is to make a link to the page on an existing page, save that page, and then click on the little question mark at the side of the link.
How to rename pages
You can't rename pages, but you can make a new page and copy the content from the old page into the new one. Then make the old page blank, or something like "this page no longer exists" and maybe have a link to the new one.

(You might find it easier to edit this page to take a peek at how the formatting works.)
