Style
NPOV (Neutral Point of View) is encouraged on all pages, however this site is not the same as the wikipedia, and we do what your opinions (your POV!) on many of the pages. So when you are writing a page about a class, avoid saying in the body "I took this class, and I think it is easy." A better introduction would be "Underwater Basket Weaving is usually considered an easy course, if you're not afraid of the water". Remember others will come and want to edit what you have written, and the "I" won't apply anymore. If you do want to make a comment in the first person, you may do so at the end of the article, but please sign it.
Signatures
Signing a comment is not hard all you have to do is type
--~~~~
and"--Axiom 18:03, 30 Mar 2005 (PST)" will appear. Or you can just click the button
on the top of every edit page.
Official

Wiki Extension
If you use Firefox there is a Wikipedia Extension that gives extra menus for editing pages. They can help with formatting, and they work here too. If you not using Firefox, you should be.
