Template:Uw-editsummary2
Information icon Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Explaining your reasoning for a change can also make it less likely to be reverted. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to set Preferences → Editing → Editor → Tick Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary). Thanks!
