I've been playing around with Fandoc more on the forums. It's pretty nice for a markup syntax. From time to time, though, I see someone else do some thing I don't know how to markup myself.
It would be nice to have an option to view the markup source for any post. Since Fandoc syntax is used throughout Fan, it would allow new users to learn more quickly by looking over others' posts.
As a side note, the Fandoc Cheatsheet link in Sidewalk should be changed to open in a new window, as clicking on it causes the user to navigate away from the page, and they could potentially lose their data.

That's not a bad idea, I'll add it my list.

I believe pretty firmly hyperlink targets should always be the user's decision. I do admit though I'm guilty of not distinguishing between JavaScript and actual hyperlinks on here. But "when in doubt, open in new tab".
