[edit] RuneScape

  1. Try doing a couple of larger edits, instead of thousands of minor edits, as it just clogs up the history page. Plus, the only person "stepping in all our toes" is you because of all these edits.
  2. Edit summaries - use them!

Don't take that note too personally. It is easier to view the history of a page if there are a big decent-sized edits, but the end result is what matters most. You might find it helps to use the preview button.
Edit summaries are great because someone might have a page on their watchlist, and they will see the edit summary which tells them if you made a tiny grammar correction that they don't need to go look at, or if you did something a little more controversial, like removing statements you felt were POV. It's also nice to be able to click the history tab at the top of the page and get an outline of what changes the page has been through.
Hope you enjoy Wikipedia and keep contributing! NickelShoe 19:29, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
