- make up meaningful, reasonably brief Wiki names - it can be a challenge (it'll sharpen you up!)
- [[WikiWords]] has name-creation tips that may help
+<a name="SignAndDate"></a>

- If a **discussion** is going on:
- separate each follow-up with a space
- - add your [[WikiName]] and the date at the end
+ - add your [[WikiName]] and the date at the end. Example:%BR% `-- Main.admin - 29 Jun 2010`
- OR, by all means, insert your comment where it seems to fit best:
- you may want to inset it with a bullet and/or _set it in italics_ so it's clear (always sign and date)
- - if a sub-topic develops, separate it with a horizontal rule at beginning and end
+ - if you'd like to use an initial, use a link with label. Example:%BR% `-- [[Main.admin][ZXQ]] - 29 Jun 2010`
+ - To automate that, add a bullet like `* Initials: ZXQ` to your [[home page|Main/Admin]].
- A good format for a **new topic** is "dissertation followed by discussion":
- start with a brief, factual introduction, followed by double horizontal rules
- **TIP:** Check the source when you want to find out how something is formatted: click <code>**Edit**</code> on the lower toolbar. To see earlier versions, click <code>**More**</code>, then check <code>**Raw text format**</code> and click <code>**View revision**</code>. A bit of HTML experience can't hurt, but you'll soon see with [[TWikiShorthand]] how far that is from necessary.
