What are dummy edits good for?

A dummy edit is a slight change in an article's wikitext that has no effect on the rendered page but allows you to save a useful edit summary. This is like a SMS (Short Message Service).

To make a "dummy edit" just make a slight non-rendering change to the page, fill out the edit summary with your short message including this tag: [[WP:dummy edit]] (include the four square brackets), and save your change. (Note that a null edit does not modify the wikitext and does not allow you to leave an edit summary.)

I reverted your edit on Composition with Red Blue and Yellow just now. I agree that there's a lot of fluff in the article as it stands, but there's enough relevant information that I don't believe it was worth deleting out of hand. I would try to work with what's there instead of removing the entire content of the article. Thanks for your work in trying to improve it, and welcome to Wikipedia!

Like I said in my edit summary, I was going to edit what was there, but it is so far from encyclopaedic that it is pointless to do so. I will remove it again. If you want to edit it, do so, but don't just put such poor quality text straight back unchanged. That is obviously not useful. Nevgerid (talk) 21:31, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
