Also just had to escape the first * in this comment https://www.lfgss.com/comments/11829971/ to allow vice versa to be italicised without having the whole second paragraph italicised.
Just found another problem with escaping reserved characters in mark down, had to change

to avoid a superfluous close bracket, i.e.
merk

Obviously many Wikipedia entries end in close brackets (pretty much any name or entity which requires disambiguation)
