What happens when you edit a page on Wkipedia?

Is it a minor edit (spelling or formatting fixup)?

Or if it is substantiated by reliable links, witten in an objective way (even if controversial) and consistent with the page and general headings and style

  • It will become part of the page

If not:

  • the page may be reverted
  • it may receive a warning message that has a time limit before your changes are reverted
  • your changes may be modified

In either case, a good editor will add a reason for the action in the edit, and if you were logged in, add a note to your user page.
