Sorry, I tend to over-generalize. ;-)
(But: Those who don't have a clue what we mean when hinting at their
quoting style often have gmail addresses, and no other obvious
User-Agent header. But I don't have numbers on this.)

Yes, you do need not to *understand* why people are irritated and
interpret it wrong, as I did long time, just *note* it.

I don't know about the web, but it is certainly true on the Android gmail
app. The quoted material is hidden beneath three dots. Tapping on them
they can be expanded or deleted entirely. There may be other mail clients
that also hide them from view.

But what it says is not all correct. Also, neither Spanish or German
articles link to the English article, and the English article does not
have links to any other language, which is perhaps why Ulf Zibis did not
find the German article.

If you don't care about top-posting, it is easy to do it wrong with
the Gmail web gui. Once you typed "top-posting" into the search
bar of your mail browser, you get both an English and (at least
with a German default) a local language explanation for what it
is. Then it cannot be so difficult to press the only symbol in
Gmail's reply field.

I (still) believe it is impossible not to find it assuming you
searched for an explanation.

how many time do *you* need?
top-posting and thread-hijacking have nothing in common except that you
can combine them

I always click on the link to other language on the article. I basically
never search again in the other language, becausue I assume that if the
link does not exist, the article does not exist. I see now this is not
always the case, but it is what I do.

But it is very likely, that people interpret it as "Do not post a new
question *on top* of an existing post/thread", and see no requirement
for further research, as this understanding is a very common subject in
mailing lists.

I exceptionally directly searched in the english Wikipedia after many
admonitions from you, not doing the right thing.
I let it up to you, if you like to repeat them endless without reaction. ;-)

To people that already know what the term means. Not to people that see it
for the first time and try to guess what it means and can guess wrong.

Who uses web gui? In my experience kids and girls, but not "power
users". ;-) Please don't feel offended, but it is at least for me
unlikely to benefit from this and even more I evade this "Big-brother-is
watching-you"-service, alias Google.

Off topic: I always wondered how "real watermarking" is able to survive
even lossy compression, but is still invisible. Wouldn't this mean that
the lossy compression is not good enough? A compressor should be able to
eliminate the invisible artifacts for more compression gain, shouldn't it?
