User blog:Robin Patterson/Edit summaries and "minor edit"

Some familypedians are very good at marking edits as "Minor" or giving brief edit summaries. Some of you are less diligent. To minimise the amount of scrolling needed for browsing "Recent Changes", please: -- Robin Patterson (Talk) 07:18, September 29, 2015 (UTC)
 * Check the "Minor edit" box whenever you're creating a standard subpage (sensor, tree, etc), so that we can "Hide minor edits" and thus see more real edits listed.
 * Give an edit summary, so as not to have your edit record spread over three lines. One word is often enough - such as "new" or "parents" or "spg" - and if you're copying from Wikipedia you can achieve it in one click with the green button.
