Cannot get edit permission for wiki page

Chris Rodgers August 17, 2014

Hi, I am a user of an atlassian wiki. I cannot find the "edit" link. The docs just say that it is at the "top of the page" but I can't find it. I have attached a screenshot. I contacted the site admin and he says I should have permission. Can anyone explain what I am doing wrong, or how the site settings should be changed?

edit: When I click on "Tools" -> Restrictions, I see "No view restrictions are defined" and "No edit restrictions are defined".

From that display, I suspect your site admin is looking at the wrong place.

He needs to read the space permissions in full to see who has edit rights, check if you match the rules for who can edit, and then check the page is not restricted.

Thanks, I edited my question to include what I know about restrictions. I will try and find out what the space permissions are set to.

That rules out the thought that the page might be restricted then! One down, just need to check your membership and space permissions now.

Fixed! Turns out I was in "confluence-users", but not the "users" group.
