HelpOnComments

1. Comments

MoinMoin has the capability to use in-context comments to directly add some comment or additional information to the place you are commenting on, while still enabling the user to get a clean display of the page contents without the comments.

The edit bar has a toggle for the visibility of these comments.

(!) Just click on Comments to toggle the visibility (requires Javascript enabled in your browser).

The comments will usually be rendered slightly different from normal text (e.g. different colour), so the user can still see what is main content and what is a comment.
