Line 30: use <nowiki>; term : definition</nowiki> ''Italic'' (edited as <tt><i>italic</i></tt>) could also be used for this purpose. The Wikipedia italic, described above and edited as <tt><nowiki>''</nowiki>italic<nowiki>''</nowiki></tt>, is preferable to the ~~HTML tag <tt><i></tt>.~~ The markup "double-quoted" (edited as <tt>"double-quoted"</tt>) is not risky, but see the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style]], subsection '''Punctuation''' for use of quotation marks.
