Hey, welcome to the wiki. There's no need to put "Created page" in the edit summary when you create a new page, that's already obvious. Just a tip. —Dr Ishmael

- Thanks! I've been putting it there just to have something, to stop it from putting the contents of the article in the summary location. Erzz197 22:32, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
- That's why I'd rather you didn't put anything in there, actually, because the default summary for a new page can be useful to people who lurk in RC. Even though it's only the first couple hundred characters of the page, it's usually enough for us to spot any inconsistencies that might require a closer look at the page. I'm not saying that you're doing anything wrong - you've picked up on things very quickly, actually, for being a new contributor - it's just that people like me are used to seeing that. —Dr Ishmael 22:42, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

- Oh, okay. I'll just leave it blank from now on. Thanks again! - Erzz197 22:43, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
