Edit Summary
[edit]
Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you.

I've added a summary to my deletion. Though Eddie Murphy and Shaquille O'Neal have Irish last names, they don't come from Irish decent. Gunshotbycomputa (talk) 00:38, 26 September 2010 (UTC)Gunshotbycomputa
