Default Formating gripe...

I've always wondered why this matters so much and why people insist on changing this every time they edit a page I work on.

Some people (like me) write the section title like this:

==M1911A1==

While others insist on doing this:

== M1911A1 ==

Does this spacing change anything at all or is it personal preference? It's no big deal, but its always been a pet peeve of mine.

It doesn't from what I can tell, I just wonder why the extra two spaces are used if nothing is changed...

I imagine it's just force of habit, reflexitively putting spaces after each "word." I don't think it matters either way.

You have officially entered the Supreme Anal category! I can't even SEE the spaces on the various pages, my eyes just don't pick up on them.

MPM,
I sugest introducing John to one of my siblings and takeing him on an Amsterdam crawl. If he survives he should lighten up quite a bit.

Then again maybe I shouldn't, last time I corrupted a 16 year old she ended up in National level politics.
