Information icon Hello. Thank you for your contributionstoWikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → check Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks!

Usage:

{{subst:Uw-editsummary}}
{{subst:Uw-editsummary|Article}} references a specific article
{{subst:Uw-editsummary|Article|Additional text}} adds text onto the end of the message instead of "Thank you"
{{subst:Uw-editsummary||Additional text}}or{{subst:Uw-editsummary|2=Additional text}} also adds text onto the end of the message instead of "Thank you", but doesn't link a page as specified by the article.
