Use preview during editing to check what the page will look like once they've been saved (i.e. published online) and to check that you haven't made any errors. It also prevents the need for multiple 'publish changes'. Publishing the same article several times in quick succession makes it harder for people to check what changed, and clogs up the [[Help:Page history|page history]]. When making major edits, consider copying the content into your [[clipboard (software)|clipboard]]. The Wikipedia servers sometimes have hiccups, and you could lose your work.
Kwon received a Bachelor’s degree in food science from Seoul Women’s University and a Master’s in advertising design from Hongik University. She started on her path as a picture book artist with design editing work for Sapsari from Black Country by Jeong Seung-gak. In 1987 she formed a picture book group with Lee Uk-bae and Jeong Yu-jeong while operating the Citizens’ Art School. The first picture book that she both authored and illustrated is Manhee’s House (1995). During a residence in Beijing, China, she studied ink-and-wash painting and gongbi-style painting using fine brushes. Upon returning to Korea, she studied Buddhist painting with monks.

Her early works from her thirties, including Manhee’s House (1995) and Mom, I Love These Clothes (1998; republished in 2010), are characterized by the detailed depictions of objects.

Tools at Work takes a multiple perspective in which the book is told from the viewpoint of the workers who perform labor with the tools themselves. The author remains more of an observer.

Kwon captures fragments of history in her picture books, and the readers of her works are not limited to children. Since 2019, she has been working with students. She conducted a project entitled “Nature and I” with students from a school on Jeju Island to express the voices of nature through writing and illustrations and to raise awareness of the climate crisis. She encouraged the children to observe their surroundings and express themselves freely from their own perspectives. Kwon meticulously recorded the process that she shared with the students and combined these records together with the illustrations made by the students and a personal essay into the publication I Want to Have More Blue.
You can get a live preview, also known as Quick-preview or AJAX preview, whereby only the preview area will reload, as opposed to the entire page. You can enable this option in your [[Special:Preferences|Preferences]], by selecting the option ''{{int:tog-uselivepreview}}'' in the [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|''Editing'' section]].

There are also several user scripts that provide similar or additional functionality, such as:
*[[User:Cacycle/wikEd|wikEd]], a large JavaScript based editor with lots of features.
*[[User:Js/ajaxPreview]], adds a preview button above the edit textarea.


== Other advantages ==
Using ''Show preview'' prevents your login timing out, which would mean your edits would not be attributed to your username. Clicking preview regularly will restart the timer, so you remain logged in. Also, if you are no longer logged in, showing a preview will make you aware of this so you can log in and publish your work after that. You can check this by seeing if your username appears in the upper-right corner when you press preview. If you are not logged in, open [[Special:UserLogin]] in a separate window (right-click "Log in" and hit "Open link in new window" or similar). Log in, then go back to your editing and hit "preview" again to make sure all is well. Note that this will clear the minor edit and watch checkboxes, so make sure they're set appropriately again before you finally publish the page.

Typically, the noinclude-part of a template page contains examples including or [[Help:substitution|substituting]] the template.
