Actual Comment by Wheelz:
samjones: in post #14 above, you have changed Wheelz quote within quote marks. This is a Rules Violation: See: http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=7697048#post7697048
If you want to paraphrase someone, do it in quotation marks. Use of QUOTE tags are subject to the same rules as formal quotation in a research paper or article: you may not make such changes without the usual editing remarks (sic, …, square brackets, etc.)
I’m issuing a formal Warning to be sure that you see this; it won’t go on your permanent record. You’ve only just joined, so I’m assuming ignorance as an excuse. and please read the other Rules while you’re at it so you don’t goof again.
