Tip

Et lille tip fra en anden wikipedianer. Når du redigerer eller opretter artikler, så husk venligst at bruge forhåndsvisning. Dermed undgås for meget støj på listen over seneste ændringer, og du vil fange de fleste af dine slåfejl selv. Bemærk, at der findes forskellige redigeringsværktøjer, som gør det lettere at fange stavefejl.

Dude - think you might consider using the preview ("forhåndsvisning") some more? It'd be a great help to the rest of us... --Medic (Lindblad) 25. nov 2010, 03:07 (CET)

My language skills are not the best in Danish and sometimes I have to read things quite a few times to catch mistakes. Not everyone is lucky enough to have been born speaking Danish fluently...it would be a great help to me if the community would be a bit more supportive of people who speak Danish as a second (in my case, third) language.

I have great respect for the fact that you have the courage to contribute in a language other than your native tongue; in my book that takes an extra bit of courage. I am in no way trying to dissuade you from contributing here - quite the contrary. However, when I find a contributor with repeated (minor) edits within the space of a few minutes, I find that a little nudge towards the Preview button is in order. Every edit made is checked by a relatively small core of patrollers and admins. There's a rather significant difference between needing a single click or two to review and approve edits to an article, and needing seven or eight clicks. Also, fewer edits make it easier to see the full extent of the edits made to an article, further facilitating the process. In short - by all means, use as much time and as many reviews in your work here as needed... just consider using "Preview" rather than "Save page" for this. --Medic (Lindblad) 25. nov 2010, 03:33 (CET)

I will try. Thank you. Mike Halterman 25. nov 2010, 16:09 (CET)

That's all I ask. Thank you, too. --Medic (Lindblad) 25. nov 2010, 16:32 (CET)
