Yeah, that's basically what I meant. If you were to write a warning with an example anyways, I think it would be okay to use said example to illustrate what an unnecessary edit is. An example page would only be any useful if you were to actually link users to it directly on some space where they'd be likely to visit the link (like their talk page) because many new users probably don't read guidelines anyways. I know I didn't properly read them right away and while I think I've managed to avoid too grave mistakes since it seems pretty obvious what kind of edits are useless and I'm rather anxious about what I've edited anyways others don't seem to fare that well.

Plus, someone would have to write that example page and that would again be somewhat difficult because people probably have different opions of what edits are actually useless and you'd have to make sure not to forget anything. That kind of page would likely also cause raging with certain users and trouble like that.

And, hey, noob here, call me stupid if it's obvious, but what's "ToU"?
