For the first case, I saw that there's a help section for new editors. It should probably answer most of your basic questions. If you need something specific explained, let me know. I personally don't use the VisualEditor because it tends to cause messes at times. Especially with tables.

As for adopting a page, you need to make use of the Under Construction template. There's instructions on how to use it on the template page (I linked to it). Basically, just copy paste the code there to a page that you want to adopt (make sure you do it in source mode to avoid unnecessary clutter by the visual editor) and change the variables as you need. If you want to adopt the whole article, add the code to the top of the page next to the other labels, or add it below a section heading if you want to adopt a specific section only.
