[edit] Edit summaries

Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field - please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you.

[edit] Show preview

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In the future, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thanks again. Katr67 14:02, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] OSU

Hi, I noticed you've been doing some work on Oregon State University. Thanks for your efforts, this article has needed some good attention for some time. Please keep in mind that good citations from reliable sources are essential to keeping Wikipedia neutral and credible. I've added a number of tags for items that need citations; if you happen to have access to research materials/articles etc. about OSU, it would be great if you can look a few of these up. I also rolled back a few of the changes you made; the Wikipedia article should be more like an encyclopedia, and less like a promotional web page. If you have any questions or need help, feel free to let me know -- just leave a note at User talk:Peteforsyth. Happy editing, -Pete (talk) 03:37, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Images

See the WP:MOS section on images, and notice that generally images should be left at thumb for size. You can adjust your user preferences to increase them on your screen if you like. Aboutmovies (talk) 04:49, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
