Put comments in the editor that won't show

Description

So my colleague and I needed this function but we could not find it on wikisyntax. The purpose is to put it in a template in order to warn the writer to read some instructions first.

I know its certainly obvious for the most of you but I thought it could be useful for other noobs like us :)

Code

So we found this solution:

 [[HTML]] <!-- This is a comment. Comments are not displayed in the browser --> [[/HTML]]

However, if you know another way that is more simple or if you think of other functions that could be useful with this one, you are more than welcome!

Have a nice day.

No need for a HTML block. There is wiki syntax for comments. It's in the docs here:
