Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Hillman Library, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. &mdash;Bill Price (nyb) 21:57, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

RESPONSE: OK - thanks for the clarification; yes, I did add some new text and a bunch of references. Question for the future: If all I do is add one or more references, is that considered a minor edit? Thanks. Barkchip (talk) 22:17, 27 August 2011 (UTC) p.s. I've never written on a talk page yet. Am I doing this right?
 * Generally, the addition of new content (including new references) shouldn't be marked "minor". (For example, in the case of references, it's possible that another editor might consider a source to be unreliable or perhaps irrelevant to point being cited.) This issue usually isn't too much of a big deal- I was just surprised to see such a substantial increase in article size (17kB to 20kB) marked as "minor", regardless of the contents of the edit. :) &mdash;Bill Price (nyb) 22:27, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
