Edit summaries Hi. I noticed your edit on the page Talk:Collatz conjecture. I've got a suggestion/request for you, regarding edit summaries.
When you edit one section of the page, the edit summary starts out with the title of that section, looking like:
*/ Section title /*
It's possible to add your edit summary to the part in between the */ /* markers, or you can add it after them. It's better to add your summary after the /*. If you add your summary between the */ /* markers, then the software thinks you've changed the Section title. Look at the history of Talk:Collatz conjecture. There are little blue arrows at the beginning of edit summaries, and the section title appears in gray text, with the edit summary in black text afterwards. If you click on the blue arrow, you go directly to that section, but if you've added your text between the */ /* markers, making your summary appear as gray text as well, that link is broken.
I hope that explanation made sense; if not please let me know. What it boils down to is: history pages and watchlists work better if you add your summary after the */ /* markers. Please let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for your contributions. -GTBacchus(talk) 20:25, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Mensanator, I'm looking into working on the graph theory version of the

- The link you want is [1].
- Sure, I'd like to see them. I've noticed that a some of my ideas aren't necessarily new, just different, although I like to think there's some worthwhile originality there. --Mensanator (talk) 05:06, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
