User:Richard0612/Abbreviations
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When writing edit summaries, I am incredibly lazy and often cannot be bothered to write comments out in full. Therefore I nearly always abbreviate things.
As this may confuse some people [although some are very common] I will list here any abbreviations that I use commonly.
| Abbreviation | Meaning | Example |
|---|---|---|
| + [or add] foo | foo added to a list, discussion or article | +AfD template |
| - [or rem.] foo | foo removed from a list, discussion or article | -PROD template, not eligible |
| ch. foo | foo changed or modified | ch. AfD template to RfD template |
| redir. | redirect | new redir. created |
| templ. | template | +AfD templ. |
| targ. | target [as in the target of a redirect] | ch. redir. targ. foo > bar |
| usr. | User | list usr. subpage for MfD |
| [sub]pg. | [sub]page | list usr. subpg. for MfD |
| sp. | spelling | ch. sp. spelin > spelling |
| gr. | grammar | ch. gr. I is > I am |
| sct. | section [of a page] | rem. entire section, seems useless |
| rv. | revert | rv. vandalism |
| v. or vand. | vandalism | rv. vand. |
| rvv. | revert vandalism | self-explanatory, for when I'm feeling really lazy! |
| MEV | multi-edit vandalism | rv. MEV |
| fix. | fix something after I have FUBAR'ed it | fix. templ. |
| UBX[n] | Userbox[en] | rem. UBXn |
