Notice is this were you write it?
Please don't hover over me, it makes me nervous I like to keep conversations together. If you post on my Talk page, that is where I will answer you, so keep me on your watchlist if you want to see the reply.

If I post on your Talk page, I will likewise watch for your reply. If you use that other silly system and insist on posting to my Talkpage instead, we can still cope, I am not obsessive about it.

Not substed,

Locator Maps

Locator template (example):

Clickable image

The entire template is now deprecated. Use the link= parameter in the file link instead 

{{Click
|image  = <image to be linked>
|size   = <size of the image> 
|width  = <width of the image> DEPRECATED
|height = <height of the image, optional> DEPRECATED
|link   = <page the image must link to>
|title  = <the label for the image, optional>
|desc   = <location of a description link, optional> 
}}

Template:Superimpose2 for up to 50 superimposed images

Edit help: How to put paragraphs within a single bulleted item?

<huge amount of not-so-good intervening suggestions removed>

I'd say the best option to use is partial HTML. Have a standard bulleted list, but use <p> tags on the long item. Example:
  • Item 1
  • Item 2

  • Item 3 with a really long boring block of text that really should be broken into two or more paragraphs but there's no apparant way to do it. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.

    Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

This method keeps the bulleted list while allowing for paragraph breaks. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 02:40, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

References

A great example of use of footnotes/references/bibliography using a footnotes template can be found in Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge 

{{Ref label|truss|k|none}}
{{Note label|start|a|none}}

A much[note 1] better way though[note 2], is; 

<ref group=note>

Grouped notes

  1. ^ A footnote
  2. ^ Another footnote 
{{Reflist|group=note}}

OR[note 1]

  1. ^ A footnote 
<references group=note />

Fonts

Can be used with <span>, <p> or <font> tags.

style="font-style:italic;" Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party
style="font-style:normal;" Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party
