Talk:FAQ on The Bogleheads® Facebook page

I modified the formatting to align with the wiki. Nice job, here's some helpful suggestions:


 * Use the "H1" through "H5" toolbar icons to set the heading levels 1 through five. In wiki text, that's translated to the equal signs surrounding the headings.
 * Hover your mouse over the editing toolbar to view the help for each icon. Click on "Toolbar help" on the left side of the page. Better yet, open the help in a new browser tab so you can jump back and forth if needed.
 * Take a look at the way URLs are used. Don't use too many on the page unless necessary.
 * Use "Show Preview" to see your edits before saving the page. Edit, preview, then edit as many times as necessary until you are ready to save the page. It doesn't hurt to save often, but the wiki will record every page saved as a new version. No big deal, just thought to mention it.

Consider adding some stronger wording about privacy. Forum members often post personal financial information, such as salary or investment information. Their screen names give a members anonymity. If you link your real name on facebook to your screen name in the forum, all of that information is now publicly connected. Consider that the linking of financial information with facebook will not only be seen by all your friends, but be data mined for commercial gain.

If the above is intimidating, don't worry about it. Just keep updating and someone will help format it later.
