When is it ok to edit a Wikipedia page?

Question by Pilates in Anderson: When is it ok to edit a Wikipedia page?
On the Wikipedia page for Pilates the word “equipment” is used incorrectly throughout the article. The correct word is “apparatus” and the article should be changed to reflect that. I’ve never really edited something that major on a page and, although I know how, I’m not sure if it is ok to do so. I posted a the issue in the discussion section of the page, but no one has responded.

So what is the usual protocol for editing things such as that?
