editYour edits, though no doubt offered in good faith, are of such nature that I carefully scrutinize each to see if it is going to slant the article. We are not here for a Lori lovefest, and please take care that your edits do not contribute to that perception. Thanks and happy editing!--Wehwalt (talk) 15:13, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
Editing help, per my note at the Berenson talk page
editFirst: if you're using Firefox, Safari, or Chrome, I'd suggest you go to your "Preferences" page (see the links at the top of any WP page, when you're logged in), go to the "Gadgets" tab, and turn on "WikEd". This will make it much easier for you to insert formatting such as bullets, bolding, italicization, and the like. (If you're not using one of those browsers, you can still insert artifacts like that - see "Editing help" under the buttons below the edit window.)
Second: before you save, hit the preview button and check to see that your text scans well and is readable. Remember that others will be reading what you've written without the benefit of knowing beforehand what you're trying to say.
Third: keep it short and to the point. It's easier for others to understand you if you're concise.
I'm not trying to school you here or affect the direction of your editing - just trying to offer some friendly suggestions with this. Hope you will take it as such. Mark Shaw (talk) 15:46, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- Again, while I think your edit last night was OK, please be very careful editing based on "personal knowledge" and try to insert sources to justify your work. Thank you for working to improve the article.--Wehwalt (talk) 12:09, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
