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.
