Basic Elements of Creole.

Should there be an explicit notion for paragraphs (would involve also the notion of linebreaks) ?

Lists#

whitespace before not allowed
* bullet list
# number list
mixed lists ok

Italics#

(majority)

''italics'' Neopolitan, looks like quote, less intuitive
//italics// parsing URLs, harder to parse (majority)

Bold#

(weak majority)

**bold** collision with bullet

Headings#

(consensus: space optional, up to level 6)

= Level 1 (Largest)
== Level 2
=== Level 3

Internal and External Links#

No space instead of pipe because internal links can have spaces.

[[link]]
[[www|desc]]
[[MyBigPage|go to my page]]

Paragraphs#

(blank line makes paragraph)

Line breaks#

(consensus: treat line breaks as line breaks) (best practice: line continuations made with backslash at end of line)

treat line breaks as <br> - more intuitive for new users
treat line breaks as whitespace - precedent, good for Hebrew

Escape?#

\

Nowiki and preformatted in-line or block#

No wiki markup is interpreted between these characters. (ignore spaces below) (consensus)

{ { { pre } } }

I want to talk about

Placeholder / Native Markup Block#

(Optional for wiki developers.)

<<x>>

Horizontal Line?#
