Hello Ficboy,<br>I notice that you've edited the House of Wessex page a current total of 30 times within 2 hours of your creating it, and that most of the edits are relatively minimal in nature. While we appreciate your contributions, I'd like to remind you to that it is preferred for editors to have as thorough an edit as possible before publishing. Usually, edit spams would be considered a bannable offense as per our Policy's (linked above) ''Achievements'' subsection, but since your edits—while numerous—are ultimately useful to the page, I'm acting in good faith by giving a pre-emptive warning before Staff take notice. I see you're using the Source Editor, so that reduces the confusion the Visual Editor typically has for new users, but I still strongly advise you to please proofread your work before saving and posting here, and to properly source your work where/when you can, as outlined in our Policy's ''Sourcing'' section. Thank you. – [[User:Darman36|<span style="font-family:Old English Text MT;font-size:15px;color:#">Darman</span>]] ([[User talk:Darman36|<span style="font-family:Viner Hand ITC;color:#">talk</span>]]) 03:05, 30 March 2021 (UTC) | Hello Ficboy,<br>I notice that you've edited the House of Wessex page a current total of 30 times within 2 hours of your creating it, and that most of the edits are relatively minimal in nature.

Well, I can't not have taken note of this, and Darman is right to take the initiative to notify you about this. We have a rule against excessive chain-edits because this can cause unnecessary clutter (i.e. spam) the feed and can also be indicative of badge-hunting. For this reason, it is strongly recommended for an editor to proofread their work before publishing. I myself frequently have a bad habit of forgetting to proofread (due to enthusiasm) or proofreading but still catching mistakes and ways to revise my work just after publishing. So I would definitely be lenient with a few minor edits to a page chained together, but thirty chain edits is way too much. If you were making major edits section by section, this also makes chain-edits more appropriate because sometimes editors want to work on sections one at a time throughout a day, but your long series of edits were all very minor. Please remember to consolidate your edits in the future together and plan fully ahead of time what you want to change in the page.

Multiple edits
Hello Ficboy,
I notice that you've edited the House of Wessex page a current total of 30 times within 2 hours of your creating it, and that most of the edits are relatively minimal in nature. While we appreciate your contributions, I'd like to remind you to that it is preferred for editors to have as thorough an edit as possible before publishing. Usually, edit spams would be considered a bannable offense as per our Policy's (linked above) Achievements subsection, but since your edits—while numerous—are ultimately useful to the page, I'm acting in good faith by giving a pre-emptive warning before Staff take notice. I see you're using the Source Editor, so that reduces the confusion the Visual Editor typically has for new users, but I still strongly advise you to please proofread your work before saving and posting here, and to properly source your work where/when you can, as outlined in our Policy's Sourcing section. Thank you. – Darman (talk) 03:05, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
