Multiple Edits
Edit
Please make use of the Preview button when making edits. This allows you to see what your edit looks like before you save it, which reduces the load on the database and makes the Recent Changes page easier to read. Thanks.--31dot 02:05, January 28, 2012 (UTC)
Good grammar...
Edit
..actually costs quite a bit, and all that is assuming you believe the US education system currently produces people who can use grammar in a manner that is considered "good", that all users of this site are from the US, and that not a single person who edits here might have learned English as a second (or some progressively higher number) language. Since all of those assumptions are just that, it might be noted that good manners cost nothing, and fixing a spelling or grammar mistake doesn't need commentary, beyond what is outlined here. - Archduk3 18:27, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
