Which lead one editor to add an HTML comment to the wiki code asking future editors not to re-add the joke "IPC" section. Another editor removed the comments with the edit summary "An article's source is not a place for messages to other users". Ia there any consensus/policy/guideline for this view? I wanted to add it back as I have used such comments before but didn't feel like getting into an edit war over invisible wikitext on an article I don't regularly edit.
God I hope there isn't. I've often left comments in the wikitext when appropriate (e.g. "<!-- this is not a spelling error -->"), perhaps a note on talk would be good as well.
