Lists

This is a list, but some of the entries need more than one line, so enclose it in Block Quotes. The list began on a previous page, so leave a blank line before the first item to separate it from the last item on the previous page. Also separate each entry with a blank line so they won't be rewrapped as a single paragraph during post-processing. Each item in the list contains its own list of words or phrases, and each of those should be tagged separately.

Punctuation

The commas, colons and parentheses are separators and containers, not parts of what's being emphasized, so they should not be included in the italics or bold tags, even though they are slanted. However, the hyphens in the boldface prefixes are considered to be part of those prefixes, so they go inside the boldface tags.
