The "Preview" button
I noticed your excellent work on Pointer (computing) required a great number of edits.

Are you aware that you can see a preview of the work you are doing to check everything looks good and check spellings and punctuation etc. before submitting the work as a finished draft?

Just to the right of the "Save page" button you'll see the "Show preview" button. By using this to check our work before saving the page we can save Wikimedia and all users of Wikipedia a lot of trouble keeping track of the page history. Also it is good practice to always leave a short comment about what work we carried out in the "Edit summary" just above the "Save page" and "Show preview" buttons.

You can also [ create your own private sandbox] as an extension to your own user page to use as a testing site for work that might require a lot of little changes over a period of hours or days.

Happy editing!  fredgandt  10:54, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

The point taken and thanks for pointing it out. I was not aware of the page history. Yes, it will be a waste of resources to have a lot of history for minor page edits. Indikawiki 19:07, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
