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 (Briefly describe your changes)

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.--220 of ^Borg 22:09, 27 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Preview before save

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Osage Casino, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, reduces edit conflicts, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thank you. 220 of ^Borg 22:11, 27 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Osage Casino edit

Your edit here dumped text into the 'See also' section where it didn't belong. It also had a syntax error that meant none of the references were visible after your edit. :-( This is why, as detailed above, previewing is a good idea.

To fix the page I had to move your new text as per here and fix the syntax error by changing "<ref name=http ..." to ''<ref>http ... .

Please go back and re-edit the text to fully integrate your edit into the page as there was already text about the Ponca City casino. As suggested above, please explain your edits with a summary and preview to check for errors. Regards, 220 of ^Borg 22:56, 27 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
