Hi there. Since you seem to be well-versed in the HRWiki, can you tell me if my signature is "legal"? I wanted it to be fancy, but I haven't been able to (easily) find a rule on images-as-your-name. Thanks!

Hang on now. Where does it say that it's wrong to bold list items? Also, by your edits it looks like the practice is widespread. In fact, there's so many, how do we know that it's not the ''unbold'' ones that are wrong? (On a side note, you keep saying "X0+ wrongs don't make a right" in the edit summaries, but you don't say what you're actually doing with the edit; it would be more helpful if you described what kind of changes you were making.) &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:46, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

:It took me a good '''''long''''' time to find those 10 bold lists, amidst dozens and dozens of unbold lists.  I started with categories [[:Category:Inside Jokes|Inside Jokes]] and [[:Category:Running Gags|Running Gags]] and went through them '''''all'''''.  Anyway, maybe the bold is the ''right'' way, but I'd hate to be the guy to switch all those ''other'' lists to bold.  I was just going for consistency, and non-bold seems to be the way the community prefers it.  (Also, I almost never find bolded periods; was it really important to do [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Swears&curid=19846&diff=517521&oldid=517515 this partial revert]?  There's another non-bolded period right there on that same page.  *shrug*)  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 19:58, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

::Your tone seems to indicate that you are attributing malice to my remarks, when I'm just asking questions and making observations. (To answer your question, in running text, punctuation takes the attributes of the text that precedes it, and it looks better for the period to be bolded in that case. On the other hand, I specifically did ''not'' bold the period after the link because the dark black looks weird coming right after the bold blue.) &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 20:14, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

:::Your tone seemed to indicate that you were attributing malice to my changes.  The phrase "Hang on now" in particular.  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 20:22, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
