Notepad vs Wordpad

I always read the recommendation that if one uses Notepad to paste text from
a Word or even Outlook messages, or web pages, the tags or formatting from
those apps will be stripped. There are reasons to avoid those tags-formatting.
Is Notepad the only app that provides such feature or would Wordpad behave
the same way?

Wordpad does not behave the same way, but other text-only editors will.
There are an enormous number of such editors available, some of them free.
I find that a much better approach is PureText, which allows you to avoid
the extra paste and copy steps.
