Your edited version won't be wiped out.  Once you edit a distributed
page your edited version will take precedence over any distributed
version.

How it works:
If there's a page in wikilib.d/ (the distributed pages' storage
location) and another copy in wiki.d/ (your writable pages' storage
location), then the one in wiki.d/ is used.

If you want to fall back on the distributed version, just delete the page.

For that, you'll want to enable uploads and use the Attach: markup. 
It's covered in the documentation.

Not sure what the question is... Notice that the second one has a /,
meaning it ends that portion of page output.  The output between the
two can be suppressed using the (:noleft:) directive.
