http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Talk:Learning_the_vi_editor/Vim/ TipsSandbox/Tip_1:_the_super_star has a bunch of "thanks for the great tip!" type comments with more useage info interspersed. I think those 'great tip' comments go to a separate page, while the 'use # or % instead' kind of comments need to be edited into the actual tip itself.

But why keep the 'great tip' comments?

The friendly atmosphere of the current Vim Tips web site is rather
nice, but why put all the work of moving it to a wiki unless you
make the tips more helpful?

Unhelpful tips and unhelpful comments should be omitted.

Moving the tip body to a wiki page and the comments to its talk page can (IIUC) be automated. /Then/ the tip author (or maintainer, etc.) can archive the talk page, remove empty comments (of the "great tip" kind), refactor useful comments into the tip body, etc.

Best regards,
Tony.
