From be6b269ece2ff2b20ccb1384086810b9acae826c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: keyboardan Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 02:05:01 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix and add needed trailing whitespace in wiki files One of my previous commit, where I removed all trailing whitespace from wiki's *.md files, did happen to remove important formatting in one file only. Add the necessary trailing whitespace to that *.md file, restoring original text formatting of that article. Now, all wiki's *.md files have only the necessary trailing whitespaces.
