Paying attention to red asterisks again, complete the required information which includes a title, a category in which to save the article, and (even though it isn't indicated with a red asterisk) some article text. Be sure to save your work. Please know the editor currently set as your default editor doesn't have a lot of functions. The next tutorial will explain how to download and install the JCE editor, which features more functions that this editor.
