Editor
Just to satiate my curiosity. I've been updating the reviewing status of your edits and they are at times structural complex and seconds apart, but I never noticed you correct any edit mistake (at times they are even preformed, with spaces for future additions). Do you use some special external editor that can understand the Wikimedia markup? --Panic (discuss • contribs) 05:19, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi Panic, I don't use any external editor, but have constructed a sheet where I can copy/paste information (such as a link to a popular manuscript witness). I change something with every edit I do, but it might be small (e.g. I missed a bracket and need to add it in). I tried using the "minor edit" checkbox, but that just makes a mess of things, I just hit "Edit" for all changes. --Serina (discuss • contribs) 11:13, 9 April 2012 (PST)


 * Thanks for answering.
 * The copy and paste may explain what I observe when I review the edits, since what I notice is very small changes in the middle of a very complicated wall of markup text. Without, much of the time at least (I noticed that exception) errors of distraction (unintentional corruption creep), that is normal. Especially when doing lots of edits like you do, of similar a very similar nature. Hence my speculation that you must have been using some type of editor, and wanting to get in on it.
 * Format changes by Wikimedia markup is not easy for me to visually process. I do have some issues with most of most markups languages, due to the multiple repetitions and lack of visual pattern.
 * The work is going great. See last edit I made on The Devonshire Manuscript/The fruite of all the seruise that I serue you should probably adopt that for easy printing of the content... --Panic (discuss • contribs) 02:05, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
