Commit mails on modification to Wiki page

[Mamta Satoor <ms...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am working on creating a new wiki page and I am assuming that I will go
through lot of iterations of edits and saves before I am ready to share it
with the community. I don't want my saves to send a commit notification for
everytime I edit and save the page. Is there a way to stop those commit
mails temporarily on a wiki page?

thanks,
Mamta

No, and that's by design, so that the community is informed
immediately if a spammer tries to spam a page on the wiki.

If you really don't want to send commit mails while you are working on
the page, I would suggest using the Preview function repeatedly. I
think you should feel free to work on it however you wish, though, and
I would be surprised if anyone commented about dozens of valid commit
messages coming from the wiki.
