I've been working on wikipedia stuff since August 2001, I'm part of the second wave of the Slashdot crowd.

Hi Ben -- why are you un-HTML-ing? I use HTML tags all the time, partially because I'm more familiar with them, and partially because the
How to Edit page offers them as a viable alternative...is there a real problem, or do you just not like them?

Hm.. I guess it was reflexive. I see them as less accessible to the average person, but maybe I'm just being elitist. I will try to stop it. I am talking of the <b> <i> tags. I will still remove the 17 lines of tables just to put in the birth date and death date information of some people I've seen. I think that is excessive and hides the actual text in a lot of HTML.
- Hi Ben - yes I'm another who replaces HTML code whenever I see it. I guess it's just a matter of taste, and I agree that reading the wiki code is a lot easier (usually) - cheers MMGB
Ben, I guess you'd be another I neglected to welcome, though I know you've been around for a while. So, welcome! --
