That is generally a good rule, but we usually go ahead and fix things when 
we notice somebody else's mistake/oversight. The problem here is that you 
are unclear (as of yet/until Humdinger respondes), if this was indeed a 
mistake, while for Ryan (and myself), it is pretty clear that it was indeed 
a mistake/oversight. I guess that's why he went ahead and fixed it.

<code></code> is generally used on our site and for example in the BeBook 
to get a different font, not to open a whole new block. It just may so be 
that Humdinger never used it like that, but that's a problem in the 
userguide then.

Best regards,
