When does the edit show
Hi, I'm new and have just made an edit but it has not shown up on the site, I am guessing it needs to be moderated? How long does it take for it appear? Regadrs Robert Nicholas — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robertnicholas (talk • contribs) 17:55, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

Panting
Hello, I created the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panting_(ship_construction) I am trying to link to it from "Panting" on this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_nautical_terms#P but as it consists of a template I have not been able to figure out how to insert the link. Thanks in advance for any help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AugusteBlanqui (talk • contribs) 23:03, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
