Hey guys! This is my talk page, don't be afraid to use it! Just use it like a normal discussion page, but add a "<br>" after your ~~~~ please! Thanks! xnerkcd (talk) 17:31, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Huh, sure. I'm curious, why did you pick "xnerkcd" instead of "xkcnerd"? Also, no worries for the page creation! --FaviFake (talk) 18:28, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

The standard method is to add an indent (or an extra one, on top of what's already there) when making a reply. A line starting with one or more :s will automatically line-feed itself from whatever is prior. Demonstrated for you (having copied just before Favi replied again), hope you don't mind.

And if you're doing multiple paragraphs at the same level of reply (other than zero indent - see below), it sorts itself. 162.158.74.15 18:33, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Or, if someone starts a new comment, two line-feeds forces the newline (where one doesn't render after just the one). And it also looks better in the editor, as the gap (together with the observeed number of colons, or lack of them) shows what's separate and what follows on from elsewhere. Not that all Talk pages are always so neat, but if you go and look at the appearance/'edit text' of any fairly busy comic Talk page, you'll probably see how it works.
Personally, I restrict br-tags for when I'm starting a new paragraph of the same (no-indent) comment, like this. But I suspect there's multiple schools of thoughts whether the br should sit at the end of one stretch of text (where it might indicate "no, I haven't forgotten to sign, continues on next line") or at the start of the next (as I've done here, for completely different aesthetic reasons).
...anyway, welcome! May all your edits be fun to make and useful to read! 162.158.74.15 18:33, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Hah! You violated the only rule of this talk page! You shall now be banished. --FaviFake (talk) 19:00, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry! I forgot how comments worked for a second and was confused by like, why doesn't enter start a newline here? I figured it out later, but I had already said the things. Yeah, so, do that.
