I [[Wikipedia: Don't use line breaks#Use single line breaks|insert a line per sentence in source]] ([http://xkcd.com/1285/ XKCD cartoon]).

I usually [[Wikipedia:Be bold|write from memory]].
As a child, I [[Obelix|fell on a encyclopedia]], and still remember lots of information.
The downside is that I may be wrong or lack references or I may overrepresent an anecdote and forget the main picture.

I usually use [[Wikipedia:See also|See alsos]] for linking to concepts that I find relevant but that I cannot or do not know how to integrate in the running text.

In spite of [[Wikipedia:Etiquette#How to avoid abuse of talk pages]], I usually don't object to answers splitting a block of my text when addressing it point-by-point. 
If it may be hard to understand, you can paste my signature and date after the broken line.
Something like this:
<blockquote>
This article should mention elephants.
The [[Julius Caesar]] article says that "Caesar" means "elephant".
--[[User:Error|Error]] 03:59, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
</blockquote>
becomes

*I have access to the ''[[Diccionario Crítico Etimológico Castellano e Hispánico]]'' by [[Joan Corominas]]. It is the most authoritative work on etymology of the [[Spanish language]]. [[User talk:Error|You can leave your questions]] on the etymology of Spanish words and I'll try to check them.
*The same about:
** ''[[Dicţionarul Etimologic al Limbii Române]]'' (funny, it is a translation from an original using Spanish as [[meta-language]])
**''[[Slanguage: A dictionary of Irish slang]]''.
