I see that you use Gnus, the same newsreader I use.

When you post a followup, Gnus automatically adds attribution lines,
like the "Stefan Monnier <monnier@iro.umontreal.ca> writes:" line in
this post.  Please leave those lines in place.  It makes it easier to
follow conversations.  (Yes, readers can typically jump to the parent
article, but it's not always easy to do that or to get back to the
current article.)
