''Okay, thanks! But why is the pilcrow (¶) on the first line not directly beside the first line of text? Protector of Wiki (talk) 07:31, 20 October 2010 (UTC)''

Question
You seem to be a fairly active "admin". Should Template:Nop be used at the end of every page? Protector of Wiki 04:30, 21 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep that "active" thing to yourself!! The only reason to use when editing a Page: is if the last line in the editing window happens to be the closing sentence of a paragraph. For the "normal" spacing to display when we take all double-checked pages and make articles out of them, hitting return 2x won't cut it. You'll see the double spacing or double return in the Page: namespaces but these won't transfer to the main article space (where they probaby won't be the last line of a paragraph anymore). In order for that normal spacing between that paragraph and the "new" paragraph begining on the very next page in the same Index: the  template should be used.
 * Simple way to think about it -- When the last tine in the edit window is NOT the end of a paragraph and the first line one the next page IS part of the same sentence DO NOT USE the template. If this broken sentence stituation is NOT what you are seeing then use rhe template.
 * So if you pretend the gray box to follow is your Page: editing window

It is no answer to repeat that an unconstitutional law is no law, so long as the question of its legality is to be decided by the State itself, for every law operating injuriously upon any local interest will be perhaps thought, and certainly represented, as unconstitutional, and, as has been shown, there is no appeal.

 * ... no NOP! George Orwell III (talk) 04:57, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks!!
 * Seems like you've got the idea -- neither one needed a NOP George Orwell III (talk) 08:39, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
