West Maui Mountains

Hi. There appears to be conflicting information in these edits. Which sources are you using? I understanding that there are conflicting uses of the names, so the article should make mention of both. Viriditas (talk) 21:06, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits

I appreciate you jumping right in and getting your feet wet, but please make use of the talk page and appropriate sources when changing content. Viriditas (talk) 22:26, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, for okinas please use the {{okina}} template instead of an apostrophe. KarlM (talk) 05:21, 9 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Puu Kukui

Please don't remove terms simply because you disagree with their usage. Use the talk page, explain your reasoning, and consider including both terms with sources. Viriditas (talk) 22:28, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Using edit summaries

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.
