[edit] Using Show Preview

Hello Blkstar13, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep recent changes and page histories from being flooded. Thanks, DorianGray 19:02, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Blkstar13. DorianGray is talking about the button pictured at the right, which you see whenever you edit a page. If you have any questions, please ask them here. Thanks. — It's dot com 19:22, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey there — please take the above comments into consideration — you've edited your userpage seven times in the last twenty minutes, which consumes 14% of the recent changes log. Thanks. Trey56 01:23, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unsolicited messages

Hey there, Blkstar13. I noticed that you've left messages on three random users' talk pages ([1], [2], and [3]). Do you know these users? If not, I should point out that sending multiple random people unsolicited messages is considered spam. Also, none of these users has edited recently (one of them hasn't edited since 2005) and they are unlikely to respond to your messages. If you want to interact with people on this wiki, a better way to do it is to get involved with improving articles and to discuss their content on their talk pages. Thanks for understanding.
