Some basic editing guidelines Hi and welcome to Wikipedia  I thought I would let you know of a few guidelines we follow when we edit articles  Please use an edit summary when making edits  This is useful for other editors to see at a glance what were the changes you made  Please use the Preview button right beside the Save Page button when making changes so that you dont have to make numerous minor edits one right after another  This keeps the history smaller and allows other editors to see more easily what changes you made  If you make minor edits please check the Minor Edit checkbox right above the Save Page button Thanks and happy editing
