Inline Comments
To create inline comments, the general mechanism follows the usual principles associated with creating Wikitext. See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext for more Wiki formatting examples. To improve readability, wherein you can easily distinguish the comment section of the text from the original contents of the article, use the following three properties judiciously.
- Indentation
- Font Style
Indentation
Use colons (:) to indent text.
This is the first line : This is the indented next line :: This is the double indented third line. ::: And so on, you can use as much indentation as is needed
This is the first line
- This is the indented next line
- This is the double indented third line.
- And so on, you can use as much indentation as is needed
- This is the double indented third line.
Font Style

*bold text* and **bold text** | bold text | ||||
