Cunningham's Law: "the best way to get the right answer on the internet is not to ask a question; it's to post the wrong answer".
We encourage all editors of this wiki to keep that in mind. Instead of worrying whether what you say is right, or phrasing it as a question, post what you think is right and let the rest of us catch it if it's not. This is also more efficient than asking it as a question: if it's right (the more probable scenario) then we are done with it - it only needs further action if it's wrong. Asking it as a question will mean that either someone has to integrate it into the page later, or it will always look a bit messy.
