 The way in which you added that footnote put the parser on the wrong foot :-) \\ Look at how I fixed that footnote. Powerful syntax.  \\  --- //[[wiki:user:alienbob|Eric Hameleers]] 2012/08/30 15:19// The way in which you added that footnote put the parser on the wrong foot :-) \\ Look at how I fixed that footnote.

 +>Most Slackdocs documentation, if not all, has been written by staff. Personally, I don't care about author attribution on these "rules and regs" type articles. Many of the articles, this one for instance, have numerous contributors. Just my thoughts. :-)  --- //[[wiki:user:nocturnal.slacker|V. T. Eric Layton]] 2012/09/04 10:45//

 +"Follow proper capitalization rules for words in titles and headings." Aren't we being pedantic? Personally, I find this a little too fussy and unnecessary. A Pain In The Arse, or a Pain in the Arse.  --- //[[wiki:user:brianl|Brian Lawrence]] 2012/09/08 06:01//

 +I had the same thought about that. Capitalizing every word is typical US-english style. We are trying to not just cater to the US population, remember? I personally think capitalizing every word is ugly. Try capitalizing a whole sentence... it looks awful. \\ Nevertheless, from the point of view of "unified look and feel" I can understand why you would want all headers capitalized. \\  --- //[[wiki:user:alienbob|Eric Hameleers]] 2012/09/08 06:59//
