I'm a little confused, is it hard on the database to keep editing online? Generally, most of the things I keep going back and editing are small things that I just figure should be right eventually, and its easier to get them sooner rather than later when there are going to be a lot of entries. For example, in the "Sylvia" entry, the reference should be SGLL, not LL, and since its close to the top, its easier to make the small edit now...when I follow links to other entries, I find some typos in almost all of them...I think I'm anal in trying to wipe them all out on my entries in a few hours, rather than let them sit? | I'm a little confused, is it hard on the database to keep editing online?

Proofreading is key to aviod making a million little edits.
read this Proofreading
This is not a joke, it is really helpful for everyone, including myself.

I'm sure many of us know this but, in my case, are too lazy, tired, bored, egotistical or plain forgetful to proof the first time through. My mistakes are usually the same over and over. I never learn. Another suggestion is to compose in a program with a spell/grammar/syntax check.
