Whats the functionality of "minor edit" check box while editing TKB
Hi all,
When we edit a TKB then at the bottom left corner there is a check box named minor edit.
Whtas the functionality of this check box?
please reply
Hi dhiraj_gophane,
This checkbox is used for the purpose of subscription notifications. As users have the ability to receive updates when an article is modified, it is a good practice for minor edits (such as typos or grammar corrections) to use this checkbox. This way, depending on user settings, they will not be overloaded with notifications on minor corrections to the article.
Under My Settings > Subscriptions & Bookmarks, you'll find a set of notification policies for published and draft articles. Within those choices, you're able to choose "Skip minor edits". This will only send notifications to the user when that box is not checked upon saving the draft or publishing the article.
