Preview Button

Please use the preview button, next to the save page button, in combination with the edit this page tab at the top so that you can add the information while editing the page one, rather than making a large number of edits in a short time. Making many edits fills up the recent changes and can annoy other users. You shouldn't have to worry about getting an edit conflict, as you have reserved the page in question. Thanks.

Another reminder, please use the preview button. Using the contest as an excuse to ignore that is frowned upon. Jellotalk 21:53, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
I don't understand how I am supposed to save my changes by only using the preview button. I have been using the preview button until I have to save and leave my computer or I am finished editing. Several of the changes I have recently made have been small, so that it why I have been saving several times. If you have any advice on what I should do better, please let me know. I dont want to cause problems. --Absol21990 22:06, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
What Jello's saying is that you should try to make all of your edits into one big edit, rather than many smaller ones like you've been doing. If you have to keep leaving your computer, you can copy and paste what you have into notepad or Word, rather than save the page and come back later. Go back and make those tiny changes on the notepad instead of the actual page, and hit "save" ONLY when you're 100% finished editing. --The ωild Snoωrunt fled! 22:56, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
