User blog comment:ChristianWallis/How to Make Valuable Edits – AKA The Second Blog on This Subject/@comment-26399604-20180706134036

Nice blog! I do think that needs to be seen. As you stated, this should save people from wasting their time. I will even admit that I've been known in the past to do a mass overhaul of edits to a story but that's just because I would be in a good mood on several occasions. :p

Nowadays, if it's there's too many stop-and-go's for me, I halt the edits and head to comment section to let the author know they need to address those issues instead.

One thing you could add, and I haven't seen it too often, is for people to do a quick check on the "Wiki Activity" prior to publishing to ensure their not editing over someone who just cleaned up a section and some. There's a lot of "quick-draws" in the rising, so it doesn't hurt to take an extra second to check the article that might've already been attended to. I usually open a second tap to do so before publishing. If the story is edited in the second/minute before you post, you can simply paste in the edits the other user missed.
