::::Thanks for the thoughtful response. To be clear, my main motivation is proper semantics for accessibility's sake and then things like machine indexing and search engine optimization, etc. Whatever we insert as MediaWiki's code (such as <nowiki>'''bold'''</nowiki> text) gets output as HTML because that's what everything on the Web is, so misusing tags—either by directly inputting the HTML or by using some wikitext that is then converted into HTML—is bad. I don't know that we need headings on pages that are short but I'll defer to you if you prefer one style over another. I do think that making a good outline structure is good for things like generating outlines with OPML or having anchors in a page that are linkable but it's not something that I think is urgent.

I'm not sure that I understand [https://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=User_talk:Zhuyifei1999&diff=0&oldid=205760 this spate] of edits. Why are you adding links into others' posts on a user talk page? [[User:Koavf|Koavf]] ([[User talk:Koavf|talk]]) 03:27, 17 August 2021 (UTC) | |||
:I think that it is very helpful to add [[wikilink]]s, as they provide valuable [[backlink]]s, and breadcrumbs to any previous discussions on said subjects. I personally always use backlinks to find established [[consensus]], or other trains of thought when trying to improve all articles here on WikiIndex, including policy. | |||
I | :I accept that it is forbidden to edit other users talk pages on Wikipedia - but we are NOT Wikipedia, and we have no need to be bound by their policies! Best regards.
