==Paragraphs==

A new paragraph is started each time you skip a line. A single Return will not affect the article's text - you need to actually skip a line in between paragraphs.

To force a Return or Line Break without skipping a line, use the HTML code, <nowiki><br /></nowiki>.

===Indentation===

Paragraphs are generally indented in Talk pages, for clarity's sake. There may also be cases where indentation would be useful in an article. To do so, start the first line of a paragraph with a colon, :, like so:

<nowiki>:This is an indented paragraph. This is just extra text to show what happens when the paragraph is longer than one line. We have enough text now.</nowiki>

:This is an indented paragraph. This is just extra text to show what happens when the paragraph is longer than one line. We have enough text now.

The entire paragraph will be indented, and multiple colons may be used to indent further.
