|
|
* Take particular care while adding biographical material about a ] to any Misplaced Pages page and follow ]. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be ] with multiple ]. |
|
|
* No ] or ]. |
|
|
* If you are testing, please use the ] to <span class="plainlinks"></span>. |
|
|
* Do not add troublesome content to any ], such as: ]ed text, ], ] or ], and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being ]. |

The ] is a good place to start learning about Misplaced Pages. If you have any questions, see the ], add a question to the ] or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

== Edit summaries == |
|
|
] As far as I can tell, you are making good edits to the article on ]. But you often forget to leave an ]. It would help other editors if you used the edit summary field, either: (1) to explain your reasoning for an edit, or (2) 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 ]. |
|
|
|
|
|
The edit summary field looks like this: |
|
|
{{The edit-summary field/OOUI}} |
|
|
|
|
|
Please try to provide an edit summary for every edit you make (I know we all forget sometimes). With a ] you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting {{myprefs|3|check=Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary}}, and then click the "Save" button. |

== Advice when people cite policies for reverting you == |
|
|
] Sometimes people cite policies (or essays) and explain how the policy/essay applies. |
|
|
|
|
|
But sometimes they cite a policy or essay but do not explain how it applied. When that happens, it is worth you looking at the policy/essay and asking how it applies. If you cannot see how it applies, say so on the article talk page. We all make mistakes - sometimes a policy shortcut that sounds like it should apply is to a policy that is either irrelevant or says the opposite of what the other editor assumed it did. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:10pt;color:#000000">--] ]</span> 10:05, 13 February 2023 (UTC) |
