Q&A

How do we write a good edit on Wikipedia?

+1
−0

Is there a way to make sure that what we write sounds consistent with the style adopted by the majority of editors? I am not sure how people do it, but almost all articles seems to have been written by the same person whenever I pick articles at random just to read them. How do you ensure that the edits you make sound consistent with the style adopted throughout Wikipedia, and what are the other steps that need to be taken in order to ensure that your edits won't be reverted back, because I remember in the old days I did a few edits and a lot of them got reverted back to how it was before somehow (usually after a few days).
