The following lines have been corrected for grammar and consistency in punctuation:

In order for a user to enter information you MUST check "enable."

In order for other people to see the entered information, you must make it "public."

If an item is "public," but not enabled, the user can never give it a value and it will never been seen. Public does not imply "enable."

If an item is enabled, but not shown in the registration form, the user will have to edit their account to place information in the field.

Realized I missed one:

If an item is "public," but not enabled, the user can never give it a value and it will never be seen. Public does not imply "enable."

I incorporated your corrections in the source code. I hope I didn't miss any as it is not easy to identify the changes. Thanks Charlie. Marking this "fixed".
