Correction:

almost all forms in the wiki have the 

 - [ ] This is a minor edit

checkbox, so a recipe would be to log into the PicoLisp wiki, goto
"My Account", Documents, click on the @ before 'testfile', and toggle the
above checkbox without pressing the edit button before. Its possible in
emacs-w3m, although it probably shouldn't (but this is not a major issue,
because in the worst case all that is lost is a mark in a checkbox when the
deactivated form is submitted).
