Fascinating. Is there a process in place to fix all this, I wonder.

One obvious thing: why is "preview on first edit" not on by default
for all users? No wonder they're confused out of their brains.

Also sounds like we need a "IS THIS YOUR FIRST TIME EDITING?" message
that gives them a very quick intro.

Also, we badly need separate references out. They kill normal editing,
and "dumbfound" people who actually want to add refs.
