Which are you referring to? ---- Assumed "both". "What is this unusual text formatting?" "I don't understand what is what." Partly related: ---- Things should look better with some simple standard bracket matching algorithm: Thanks for your interest anyway. |

@garry-ut99, would you help reaching @gorhill? I have several findings of uBO; and I believe the corporation shall benefit all. |

Unfortunately I can't help you reach him, because this psychic-troll has banned me for no good reason as well, along with vandalising hundreds of my useful technical comments:
In that case, at least one time in your live follow your own rules and block yourself to prevent further vandalism on your own part. |

Below texts need refactoring. Probably complete rewrite.
But to summarize simply:
I didn't mean what I'm accused of.

@gorhill or @gwarser:
Do you mind reverting this Wiki edit or at least taking a look into it? (A person asked a question earlier in the discussions about this subject and was told the Wiki answer was very clear as it stood. Then the issue was locked.)

I don't feel this belongs in the wiki. Especially with it pointing to someone's comment and also putting "
[ Which? ]" in the paragraph to instigate or troll a reaction. I don't know what this formatting code "<&>...</&>" is trying to accomplish either. ]----

Reverted, thanks for the heads up. The commit had nothing to do with the question asked. I have blocked that user to prevent further vandalism. ]

My apologies for bringing the discussion to the less proper place...
But @gorhill's block caused me unable to reply at the right place.

Reverted, ... The commit had nothing to do with the question asked. ]
<^> Er, the commit indeed had nothing to do with the question asked [ https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/discussions/2183 ].
As clearly indicated in the edit description:
[[
Added info about the specific-generic filter ("*##${Selector}") (and tagged ambiguity) and the "generichide" directive. Added example for ":style( ... )" operator.
]]
(not displayed in the "wiki/_compare" page, only in "_history" (before revert) )
[ Quote (previous):

<^> Vandalism?..
I'd suggest looking at the rendered page:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/wiki/Static-filter-syntax/9fd0bc3eaefb1f879666b24b7852209c91e1c6c8
.
While I admit that the pre-rendered Markdown indeed somewhat looks like vandalism (without scrutiny), but that's Markdown's inherent problem.

<^> That question is about a different subject (though referred the wiki) and for different purpose.
And I sincerely do not quite understand why it was locked... As I (perhaps others) still have information to add.

You cannot "comment" in filter list maintained by someone else and downloaded from remote location. ]
<^> I realized the point soon after my further questioning.
Though @mapx- rashly locked the discussion even sooner before I had the opportunity to update the post...
