Should I just use the source highlighting feature for the macros in this guide? I'd like to clearly set them off from the rest of the text, which is why the blockquotes have the gray background - however, the blockquote method is a PAIN. I can put the source-tagged text inside a blockquote (to keep it inset). Should I switch to the source-tagged option, or should I leave it? Rumble 03:44, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- We typically use the source tag whenever presenting macro code, and the pre tag when presenting multi-line output from those macros, but it's really up to you. If you find yourself writing complex markup a lot, it might also be better to make a template out of it. zEal 03:50, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
