It doesn't matter whether the editor puts a space after * or #, since the decoding will insert one regardless of whether there is one, none, or several.

1) On lists (* and #) should there be spaces after those stars and hashes? 2) In headings (===Text===) should there be spaces, as in "=== Text ==="? 3) Should there be blank lines before/after these headings? 4) Should there be blank lines at the end of articles, i.e. before and after interwiki links and category inclusions? This often causes an (IMO) unsightly amount of blank space at the end of an article. 5) When and why were interwiki and category links moved to one a line?
I seem to have done a lot of contributions related to whitespace recently (see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=R... and previous pages) and I'm wondering whether I am indeed making correct changes.
