Edit summaries

[edit]

The reason we encourage edit summaries is to help other editors understand why you have done an action. For example, if an editor removes a line of text without an edit summary it may look like vandalism to another editor and get reverted; on the other hand if an editor removes a line of text with the edit summary "removing factual error, this did not happen until later" then other editors will see it as a genuine edit and are less likely to revert your edit without more thorough checking. Also, it helps editors looking back through the edit history of the article to see when different changes were made. See Help:Edit summary for more information.
If you have any further questions, just let me know. Regards. Road Wizard (talk) 20:50, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
