========================
2.4 Quoted Material

2.4.1 Attribution
Please put quoted material before your own comments, and identify the 
author at the beginning of the quote. When replying to a post 
containing comments from more than one person, make sure you 
attribute the comments to the proper person.

...

Please clearly indicate quoted material (for example, by using 
chevrons or angle brackets [>], which Yahoo and many e-mail programs 
insert automatically; or by putting quoted material between quotation 
marks).


2.4.2 Snipping

To be kind to those with slow internet connections, please snip (edit 
down) all quoted material, leaving only the minimum necessary for 
others to understand your reply. 

...
