Edit summaries and references

Thanks for your efforts to improve the English Wikipedia. I wanted to let you know that edit summaries are for briefly explaining what change you're making to an article or why you're making such a change, while urls for the sources of information you're adding should be added directly to the articles themselves as part of inline citations (not to the edit summary). You're not expected to know all of that immediately, and it's great that you're using edit summaries and adding sourced content. Please do take a few minutes to read the two pages I linked above. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have, or you can ask at the help desk. Rivertorch (talk) 05:20, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

August 2012

Hello, I'm MelbourneStar. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made to Elton John, because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. -- MST☆R ^{(Chat Me!)} 09:02, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
