http://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Death_Watch_Strike_Force_of_Sonorus_V I don't know why it's done what it has, or why the 'Margin' is so wide.... tutorial wasn't real helpful. EDIT: Ok it's all there, but WHY is the Margin so wide?

By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.

Dont start your lines with a space - doing so will skip formatting (making it very wide) and will treat it as a quote.

To be fair, I try to point out to my kids that web documents don't use indentations, but
print documents they should probably default to ye olde double spacing + indentation
standard.
