Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to Edwin Barnett did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! MrFlyingPies23  (?Talk?)  | (*Contrib*) 05:31, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the note! I edit quickly so I had been overlooking the summary when saving. I'm back in the habit of doing it now. Thanks! —МандичкаYO 😜 05:35, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
