Do I have to add the [[User:MZMcBride]] in order to trigger a notification that I've replied? Am I expected to copy the fancy markup around some users' signatures? Must I watch the page to get my own notifications back? Do I intersperse my replies with the colons and break up his post? Does the ~~~~ go on its own line? I have been editing Wikimedia wikis since 2005, 1600 edits and another 4000 since I joined WMF. I'm pretty damn familiar with wiki markup, and yet I have close-to-no f***Ing clue on this stuff. Clicking [Edit] to have a conversation is an *anti-feature*. It's great that there are tens of thousands of Wikipedians who feel comfortable with it. *I'm not one of them*.
