    • Biographical/Personal information placed in your "User:..." page(s) can include first-person statements, like "I use this model scanner...", etc.
      • CAUTION: Anything you post will always exist in that page's "History", so be careful with your own personally identifiable information, and with anything that might later reflect poorly on your reputation in the eyes of your family or employer.
