Re. signature - no, that didn't work; looks like you have that box ticked in your preferences; you should UNCHECK the box that says "Treat the above as wiki markup".

Re. tag on Talk:Howard Zimmerman - oh, that one, I see. Yep, OK, I removed it.

Re. help - no, not at all; please, feel free to ask anything, any time. If I can answer, I will, and if I can't (for whatever reason - if I am too busy or whatever) - then I won't!  ►
