Article
Clicking on the "Article" link brings the user back to the main article page (and out of discussion, edit, and history modes, etc.)
Discussion
Clicking on the "Discussion" link brings the user to a meta-page where users can discuss the contents of the main article in view. The discussion page can include suggestions on additions, updates and deletions from the main article page.
Edit
Clicking on the "Edit" link brings the user to the edit page, where the contents of the article can be edited.
History
The "History" page shows all changes made to the main article being viewed.
Protect
Clicking on the "Protect" link gives the user the option of locking the viewed article from being edited, deleted or moved. Permissions can be set according to user level.
Delete
Clicking on the "Delete" link brings the user to a page where he or she can choose to permanently delete the page being viewed along with its history file.
Move
The "Move" link contains a form that allows the user to rename a page, moving all of its history to the new name. The old title will become a redirect page to the new title. Links to the old page title will not be changed; be sure to check for double or broken redirects. The user is responsible for making sure that links continue to point where they are supposed to go.
Watch
Clicking on the "Watch" link adds the currently viewed article to the user's watchlist. Future changes to the article in question and its discussion page will be listed on the watchlist, and the page will appear bolded in the list of recent changes to make it easier to pick out.
