The number will usually be zero, so that is when I would do it. =A0Of=
course it should be combined with "successfully saved to ...".
I like it after rather than before saving because, in my view, we want
to limit the amount of attention required between "have an idea" = and
"saved the idea".

Perhaps there are other times for it, but then would work for me.

Myalgic encephalomyelitis denialism is causing death (decades early;
Jason et al. 2006) and severe suffering (worse than nearly all other
diseases studied; e.g. Schweitzer et al. 1995) and grossly corrupting
science. =A0http://www.meactionuk.org.uk/What_Is_ME_What_Is_CFS.= htm
