Yes. Christian normally keeps an eye on it, but it should suffice to go through
the documentation once before a release is made and remove the tags. Thankfully
they're easily spottable :)

That said, when you remove a tag, be sure to check whether the information
contained in it is already present in the remaining text.

Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy
indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
