Please preview, consolidate, and summarize
Hello Eric, and welcome to Wikipedia. Below are a few editing suggestions to make it easier for you and others to collaborate on the encyclopedia. Please preview, consolidate, and summarize your edits: Thanks in advance for considering these suggestions. Eric talk 12:54, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Try to consolidate your edits, at least at the section level, to avoid cluttering the page's edit history; this makes it easier for your fellow editors to understand your intentions, and makes it easier for those monitoring activity on the article.
 * The show preview button (beside the "publish changes" button) is helpful for this; use it to view your changes incrementally before finally saving the page once you're satisfied with your edits.
 * Please remember to explain each edit with an edit summary (box above the "publish changes" button).

Hello again Eric. Reminding you that you can do a courtesy to the rest of use by leaving edit summaries for every change you make on Wikipedia. And using the above-mentioned show preview button will avoid page history clutter such as you left here. Thanks for considering this. Eric talk 16:47, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Barnstable: city vs town
Hello Eric- I reverted your change again. Barnstable is not a city. It is a town with a city form of government. This is described to some extent in the article here: Barnstable,_Massachusetts. Please do not simply revert the edits of other editors, especially without discussing or explaining your views. If you would like to present an argument for calling it a city, you should do so on the article's talk page, though I don't think you will meet with much success. Eric talk 14:57, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
 * This talk page has a lot of Erics! Sdkb (talk) 18:19, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
