Hi,
Hi,


I've noticed that you have been making a lot of additions to some wiki pages today. However, you do this by clicking the 'Save Changes' button  a lot, sometimes 6-7 times in 5 minutes. Wiki admins, and other users, use the Recent Changes page a lot, to check if any vandalism has taken place. When the page is flooded by such minor edits, this becomes hard to do. I see you mark a lot of your edits as minor, which is a good thing.

Yet, I would like to point you to a function on the wiki: The preview button. If you click this, you'll see exactly how your edit would look, and it doesn't appear on the recent changes page, even for people like me who have 'show minor edits' on in the recent changes.
Marking your errors as minor (A setting you can set to default in your preferences page) is a good start. However, I would like to point you to a function on the wiki: The preview button.

Thanks in advance,

Editing: Preview

Hi,

I've noticed that you have been making a lot of additions to some wiki pages today. However, you do this by clicking the 'Save Changes' button a lot. Wiki admins, and other users, use the Recent Changes page a lot, to check if any vandalism has taken place. When the page is flooded by such minor edits, this becomes hard to do.

Marking your errors as minor (A setting you can set to default in your preferences page) is a good start. However, I would like to point you to a function on the wiki: The preview button. If you click this, you'll see exactly how your edit would look, and it doesn't appear on the recent changes page, even for people like me who have 'show minor edits' on in the recent changes.

Thanks in advance,
