Edit summaries

Thank you for your your contributions to ArchWiki. Please make sure to include an edit summary with every edit, even minor ones, as this is helpful when browsing an article's history. I'd suggest you to go to Special:Preferences and check "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary".

It is my pleasure to contribute, even if only in a small way, to such an excellent distribution. Thank you for your observation, I will make sure to include edit summaries going forward. I've revised my settings as you suggested. -Bruno
One more hint, the edit summary entered by the editor should not be enclosed in /* ... */ tags, which is reserved for the name of the edited section and formatted differently on the history page. There the small arrow is a link to the edited section, which is identified by the text inside /* ... */ of the edit summary, so editing it will break this link. -- Lahwaacz (talk) 09:06, 22 December 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Got it! Thanks for the tip :)
