HELP! Managing Another Markdown How-To Post

[jesse_the_k]

I'm thrilled that Markdown simplifies formatting your DW posts has proved popular and helpful. I didn't explore all Markdown's features to keep it short. I regret that now. I'm drafting a "Markdown: the sequel" post with the remaining features. In a better timeline, I would have written "Markdown: the novel," integrating the sequel stuff in the first post. I want to maximize reference utility for DW users in the next decade. Three ways to do this occur to me, and I bet you have a better idea.

Plan 1:

• write & post markdown the sequel, with a link to post 1
• edit post 1 with a link to the sequel
• as corrections appear to the sequel, edit them in

Plan 2:

• write & post "markdown the sequel", with a link to post 1
• edit in corrections as they appear
• copy out post 1 and edit it together with the sequel to create "Markdown the novel"
• paste the novel into post 1 url

Plan 3:

Create one entry and post it in dw_nifty

So, gentle reader--tell me what to do!

I voted for dw_nifty because it's currently underused, but would add a suggestion of adding the link to the original old post as it's being linked around a lot!
