Testing pages

By the way, if you want to test your update to a page, you can use the "preview" button to see what it will look like after the update, and you can change your Wiki code and formatting before you commit the new page. (And it saves the wiki from having to keep a lot of extremely minor versions.)

(Some things won't preview correctly, but the only one I have trouble with is the expedition template.) Jiml 01:13, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Echoing what Jim said

When you edit a page, next to the "save page" button there is one marked "show preview". Please learn what it's for!  :-) If you just click "save page" every time you insert two blank lines, or change one word, then it fills up the Recent Changes page with your edits, and it makes it harder for everyone to see which pages have been updated recently. Thanks. -- Benjw 17:03, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Pardon, pardon... Thanks for the advice. Now I understand, and I am trying hard to do everything right. Beginners!

Graticule wide info

You might think about moving your lists of Graticule-wide info to the graticule page instead of your own userpage. (Like the list of active users.) Here in Oregon, we kinda designated the Portland graticule page as the "main" one, and region-wide info and discussions go there. Jiml 16:07, 3 January 2011 (EST)
