Multi-lingual Introductions!

There was recently a discussion about the use of other languages in the Introductions. Having now read the Old Thread
Re: Hello from some Swedish newcomers
it seems that the problem is not new.
Would it not be possible to add Mark's comments about English being the language of the Forum to his Post which 'officially' should be read before posting ones Introduction.

Sticky: Posting your introduction - please read first!
mark

The information > Guideline: Use of foreign words/terms in posts
to be found under Support > Support > Announcements is obviously not very 'visible' and particularly new-comers can hardly be expected to find it before they post.

It won't solve the problem, but it will ensure that no-one can say they couldn't find it!

Greetings!
I was surprised yesterday to see that quite a few people had already read my post but no-one had commented. Not that everyone has to agree, but mostly reactions come thick and fast.
It's a pity really that all four posts in Mark's thread cannot be combined -to make sure that new members don't read just the first part, as all four posts are relevant.
Still you cannot have everything and I am grateful that this bit was added so promptly. Thank you.
