Saving Your Edits

Before you save, it is good practice to summarize your changes and check for mistakes.

Source Editor

When editing the wikitext directly, you will see these options below the edit window:

• Summary: Enter a brief description of the changes you have made (e.g., "fixed typo," "added information about abilities"). This is very important for helping other editors understand the page's history.
• This is a minor edit: A checkbox for small changes like fixing a typo or correcting a link.
• Show preview: This shows you what the saved page will look like. It is extremely useful for catching mistakes before you save.
• Show changes: This shows a side-by-side comparison of the differences between the current version and your edited version.

Visual Editor

When using the Visual Editor, clicking the blue "Publish changes" button will open a dialog with these options:

• Summary: The same as in the source editor, this is where you describe your change.
• Review your changes: This button allows you to see the wikitext differences your changes have made, similar to "Show changes" in the source editor.
• This is a minor edit: A checkbox for small changes like fixing a typo or correcting a link.
