I applaud your desire to make PerlMonks better. However, I think this is a very bad idea. A post should reflect your own ideas and concepts. Subtle differences between another node and one of your own can contribute to misunderstanding and frustration on your part (not to mention the 'exegetical' author). This seems a bit like 'forced association by proxy' or, if you want a real-world example, somewhat like a schoolteacher forcing the students to sit in assigned seats. By the way, I hear it is good to practice making one's own ideas clearer.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
