ZScarpia Thanks! Jontel (talk) 04:34, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you!

Hi Jontel. Thanks for clearing up after me at Panorama that reads much better now. I generally know what I want to say, but I struggle to concisely articulate it. Is it best if I take my proposed edits to the article talk page, as opposed to launching my ramblings into the article? At least until I'm more confident? --DeltaSnowQueen (talk) 11:23, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi DeltaSnowQueen, I would not worry too much about not getting it right first time. People will generally appreciate that you have taken the time to spot the need for a change, done the research, added a draft and added sourcing, rather than criticising an addition, even if they think it could be better. They will find it easier to amend your addition on the page, rather than discuss it on the talk page. The talk page is really for sorting out disagreements or discussing really major changes. I would suggest two things to improve your edits ( I do them): 1) look at what else is on the page and similar pages first, for style tips, and 2) first type an edit into your sandbox and amend it where you can see improvements. If you are uncertain about it, save it. You can then come back to look at it at a later time and tweak it some more. There is no deadline. You then only add it to the article once are satisfied with it. Good luck! Jontel (talk) 11:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your advice, I'll take that on board. I'll get better. Eventually. --DSQ 12:03, 28 April 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by DeltaSnowQueen (talk • contribs)
