 Here are specific formatting guidelines for challenge text and examples:
 
 - Language keywords go in `<code>` tags. For example, HTML tag names or CSS property names
-- The first instance of a keyword when it's being defined, or general keywords (i.e. "object" or "immutable") go in `<dfn>` tags
+- The first instance of a keyword when it's being defined, or general keywords (e.g. "object" or "immutable") go in `<dfn>` tags
 - References to code parts (i.e. function, method or variable names) should be wrapped in `<code>` tags. See example below:
-- Use <code>parseInt</code> to convert the variable <code>realNumber</code> into an integer.
-- Multi-line code blocks **must be preceded by an empty line**. The next line must start with three backticks followed immediately by one of the [supported languages](https://prismjs.com/#supported-languages). To complete the code block, you must start a newline which only has three backticks and **another empty line**.
-  **Note:** If you are going to use an example code in YAML, use `yaml` instead of `yml` for the language to the right of the backticks.
