When you are editing an article many times over a few minutes, consider using the 'Show preview' button (to the right of 'Save Page'), this makes it easier for you to see any mistakes that you may have made, before the page is saved. Editing an article several times in quick sucession fills up the [[Special:Recentchanges|Recent changes]] log and should be avoided wherever possible.

When you are editing an article many times over a few minutes, consider using the 'Show preview' button (to the right of 'Save Page'), this makes it easier for you to see any mistakes that you may have made, before the page is saved. Editing an article several times in quick sucession fills up the Recent changes log and should be avoided wherever possible. Leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions.

Don't unwikilink things such as May 9 May 9 as it changes the preferences a user may have set. Ardenn 14:49, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
If a date includes both a month and a day, then the date should normally be linked in order to allow readers' date preferences to work, displaying the reader's chosen format. The day and the month should be linked together, and the year should be linked separately if present. For example:
- Month and day
- [[February 17]] → February 17
- [[17 February]] → 17 February
- Day, month, and year
- [[February 17]], [[1958]] → February 17, 1958
- [[17 February]] [[1958]] → 17 February 1958
