Mark and Ted discussion about WikiFormatting edit summary

[4:17pm] TedErnst: your message  about [[WikiFormatting]] is interesting
[4:18pm] TedErnst: I use the edit summary: formatting all the time
[4:18pm] TedErnst: I don't think I've ever used [[WikiFormatting]]
[5:45pm] MarkDilley: Ted, I don't think I have ever seen you not do that
[5:45pm] MarkDilley: else I would have mentioned it :-)
[5:45pm] TedErnst: that's just not one of the terms I use
[5:46pm] TedErnst: remember the discussion about tweak?
[5:46pm] TedErnst: I always say: formatting
[5:46pm] TedErnst: with no brackets
[5:46pm] TedErnst: I need to be reformed 
[5:46pm] MarkDilley: are you saying that [[WikiFormatting]] may be clearer?
[5:46pm] TedErnst: that term doesn't mean anything for me
[5:47pm] TedErnst: but I might use [[formatting]]
[5:47pm] MarkDilley: I think I have used tweak less, and copy edit more, which I am not 100% sure is better 
[5:47pm] TedErnst: http://www.aboutus.org/WikiFormatting
[5:47pm] TedErnst: this page doesn't mean anything to me, now that I'm looking at it
[5:47pm] MarkDilley: might formatting include [[HTML]] formatting
[5:47pm] TedErnst: is this showing someone how to do bold?
[5:48pm] MarkDilley: no....
[5:48pm] TedErnst: when I used formatting, I'm doing things like rearranging the images or changing the way the page displays
[5:48pm] TedErnst: no?
[5:48pm] TedErnst: I'm lost
[5:48pm] TedErnst: sorry
[5:48pm] MarkDilley: I remove <br />
[5:49pm] MarkDilley: I insert : to a list that is just one line
[5:49pm] MarkDilley: I change <b> and<i> to ''' and '' (so yes, bold is included)
[5:49pm] MarkDilley: maybe this would be a good community working in public conversation between us on the wiki
[5:50pm] TedErnst: I almost never do this type of edit
[5:50pm] TedErnst: yes, it would
[5:50pm] MarkDilley: can we refactor this in?
[5:50pm] TedErnst: where?
[5:50pm] TedErnst: yes
