WP:Wikipedia is not a reliable source
Put : as response under comments when discussing on pages to have own response formatted correctly, put several IE :: for second response, ::: for third response etc.

The templates {{unsigned2}} and {{unsignedIP2}} do almost the same as {{unsigned}} and {{unsigned IP}} when used with two parameters, but the ordering of the parameters is reversed. The resulting display is the same. These templates may be useful when copying and pasting from the edit history, where the timestamp appears before the username.
