Recently a node of mine was marked (OT) by someone else after I had posted it. I didn't have a huge problem with it (I disagreed completely, but thats life), but it did raise the issue: Who decides whats (ot)? And after they decide, who changes it? At the moment, as far as I can tell some random person with the power to edit nodes decides it's ot and edits the title? And if that is the case, can we atleast get some consistency? Personally I would much rather have an "ot" flag that you could toggle viewing or something of that nature. I suppose you could accomplish the same thing by allowing a regex to be specified to determine node titles that shouldn't be displayed.. but thats icky.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
