Formatting advice

[edit]

Hey, just so you know: When you're trying to add an indented comment to something placed as part of a numbered list (as you did at {{{1}}}), the preferred method to do it is this:

# Comment 1
# Comment 2
#: Comment to comment 2
# Comment 3

which will produce:

  1. Comment 1
  2. Comment 2
    Comment to comment 2
  3. Comment 3

Notice how that does not disrupt the numbering.

Contrast this with what you did, which is:

# Comment 1
# Comment 2
:: Comment to comment 2
# Comment 3

which produces:

  1. Comment 1
  2. Comment 2
Comment to comment 2
  1. Comment 3

See how the numbering is disrupted there?
