Bonjour.
Can I encourage you to read and heed the messages sent in answers to your questions and the site's suggestions about posting questions:


POSTING TIPS

1. State the name (and number if available) of the puzzle in the thread title. "Stuck", "Help!!!" or "Last One" aren't very useful titles.

2. Give the clue number, the clue and the number of letters and please put this number in parentheses at the end of the clue. If no number of letters is given in the puzzle, then tell us. It also helps to know if the clue is cryptic or general knowledge.

3. Tell us which letters you already have. Try to use spaces around the character you choose for missing letters as it makes it much easier to read. Also try to ensure that the letters given match the stated number of letters in the clue.

I put the posting tips on the 4Down? thread too. Hope we get the message across!

Can we add a Posting Tip #4: to the effect of "one puzzle, one thread"?

Certainly 'one clue, one thread'. I think just one thread for some of the bigger puzzles would be too long.
Also the use of the 'search' box could be encouraged to avoid the same clue being posted several times.
