If nothing else, then at least edition and/or version info. For example, if book came out in 1960 and had ~15 editions, metadata download gives 3 options... May be nitpicking, but I like to have right pubdate.
And while I'm at it, I'll grab other stuff also.
Ah. I'll start doing that too and add it to KISS post. My apologies for my being so dense about that earlier. Thanks.

I recommend you make the "Newer version at post #" at the top of your first draft include a link to the post. Preferably make the #154 a link to post #154. All of the post numbers are links to themselves. This makes it much easier to find and read you're latest revision. Otherwise someone (me) has to spend time jumping around trying to figure out what page the post is on to read it.
Done. Sorry about the jumping around, I should've done that much sooner. Thanks.

That's possible too. Let's talk about it a little.

Is there a way to insert a new first post I could keep updated before the original post, in order to preserve thread continuity and documentation in case anyone wants to spend time slogging through all of the thread?
