articles - Warning message when user navigates away from a page




In my software, If user edits some content of a document and clicks close icon without saving the changes he made (i.e. without clicking the save icon first), the text of message that I display to the user is as follows:



“Leaving this page will discard unsaved changes.”




Should I use ‘the unsaved changes’ instead of simple ‘unsaved changes’? Does this sentence look correct?


Answer



Just unsaved changes seems to be the one that reads more easily.



Your original gut feeling was right all along!
