 As a maintainer you are entitled to delete comments. Use this feature wisely and always explain why you deleted a comment. If a comment is useless or is not true anymore, you can safely delete it. Whenever you can, extract how-tos, other peoples tests (for your test history table for example) from the comments and put it in your versions page and how-to notes.

+If users paste large amounts of debug/crash output from wine, it might be a good idea to delete their comment and depending on whether or not a bug report as been filed for the problem, ask them to file a report and attach the information.

 <h4>Using the HTML editor</h4>

-Here you'll find informations and hints about the HTML editor used when editing informations in the Application Database.<br>
-At this time detailed informations are not available. Please check back later.
+The HTML editor allows users of the AppDB to write richer descriptions, guides or warnings by providing a WYSIWYG HTML editor.  The HTML editor can be disabled in your Preferences which will allow you to edit the html source of various fields.
