Why did I replace two hyphens and four tildes in a code and nowiki section? Because it was not rendering as two hyphens and four tildes. What I see on my machine is two close braces in a code section. So I replaced the two-hyphen-four-tilde construct with just one tilde, expecting the user to work what is meant from the context. --prime mover (talk) 14:26, 24 May 2013 (UTC)


 * I also have PM's problem. How 'bout something like "two hyphens: followed by four tildes: "
