Editing the release notes wiki
I had foolishly assumed that editing the Wiki would be reasonably easy.
It isn't.
I need to add a child page to
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Releases, and don't
see an "Add Page" link.

Keith had previously sent me a screenshot. I can see the other links in
the same area, but not edit.
I think I may have found the problem, but need admin help to sort it
out. I seem to have two confluence accounts. I suspect the one I can log
into is not the one that has been granted privileges appropriate for a
committer and release manager.
I would like the account that does not have my e-mail address deleted,
and the account with my e-mail address granted the privileges I need.

This was probably a misunderstanding when I enabled your account. I've
now swapped the two. Privileges had been given to pats at apache.org
when I enabled the account. Try with just "pats" now.

The "pats" account works fine now. I see "Edit" as an option next to
"Watch".

Hi Patricia,
I see you have 2 accounts in cwiki, and you just mentioned them
both :)
You had enough perms in your "pats@apache.org" account but
you had zero permissions in your "pats" account.
I assume therefore you have been logging in under "pats" and have
updated that account with appropriate permissions.
Please try again.
In order to avoid confusion in the future can I suggest we delete or deactivate
the other account ? (pats@apache.org) which you haven’t logged into since
June 2013.
HTH

Patricia;
In the OpenOffice space on Confluence the only Account you have is your
apache.org email account and it has all the privileges you need. That is
the username you should be logging into to edit AOO content. Try logging
out of the account that you are in and then login using your apache.org
email address as username. If that does not work we may have to elevate
it to infra as I have done all I can think of as a space administrator.

Keith

Technically, the icon is not in Confluence menu, but on the wiki page. Could it be you have the page scrolled, and therefore do not see the icon?
Here is a screenshot (German GUI):

In "Profile" it shows my name and e-mail correctly, so I assume I am
logged in.
I have the Watch, Share, and "..." icons, but not the Edit icon.

Are you logged into the wiki? If you are attached is a screen shot of

I have checked the permissions on your cwiki account and you have

attachments. If you are still having trouble, reply to the list and I
our one of the other admins will look into it further.

You usually make a request on doc@ or here on dev@, giving the user name you have on the CWiki, and one of the administrators will give you the karma. I know Keith was doing that for folks who wanted to work on documentation.
According to the record we have for such things, Andrea and Dave Fisher can also do it.

I have added the child page for 4.1.3 based on the 4.1.2 page. It will
need to be edited to bring it up to date.
