Hope so. Just wanted to make sure I didn't make some small formatting error; all I could think otherwise is that I had a space or something that managed to ruin it. Would that do it?
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper Wall

So a few days ago I was adding a recently launched trope, Identical Twin Mistake, to the Twin Tropes index. All well and good, but this is an index using paragraph markup along with the trope itself. For some reason, though I feel I copied the formatting exactly, the result came out broken; you could see the slashmarks and it didn't look like a paragraph. When I resorted to copying a different trope and switching everything out for mine, it came out perfectly. I'm just asking what I did wrong the first time. I don't know what I did that was different compared to the other examples on the page. If anyone could shed some light on this for me, I'd appreciate it, so that I don't make the same mistake in the future.
