[edit] Multiple edits

Hi Skoopy and welcome to Wikipedia. I'd like to make a suggestion regarding multiple edits, if you don't mind the input. I noticed that you have done something a lot of us do when we start out: make a series of small edits to one article every few minutes as you refine it. It's a lot easier for other editors collaborating on the article--and for you as well--if you try to keep your edits to fewer sessions. You can use the preview button to check your changes as you go along. On a side note, if you use Firefox, it has a great option that will check your spelling as you type in the edit field (Tools>Options>Advanced>General). You will notice as you accumulate more pages on your watchlist that it's much easier to keep track of changes to articles when edits are made to them over fewer sessions (take a look at the edit histories of a couple articles). Have a good one and I hope the chicken livers are still good at Governor's! -Eric talk 16:23, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
