GitHub uses Asciidoctor to render their asciidoc files.

One major point of AsciiDoctor is that it allows you to customize your rendering. If we want custom CSS, we should not use Github Wiki directly, and instead use something like Redoculous, which is what the Forge website uses to render its docs and display them in its own CSS:

http://redoculous-lincolnbaxter.rhcloud.com/api/v1/preview?repo=https://github.com/windup/windup.wiki.git&path=/Rules:%20Rules%20Development%20Guide.asciidoc&ref=master

(looks like I need to fix a bug in some of the link handling, but you should get the idea. It lets you embed docs directly from github into a webapp: http://forge.jboss.org/document/develop-an-addon )

They have an unfortunate mix of "DocBook legacy" and forward compatibility.
But it's a bit configurable.  Dan wrote:

It's also pretty each to change by hacking the html5.conf file:

----
[paragraph]
{title?<div class="title">{title}</div>}
<p class="paragraph{role? {role}}{unbreakable-option? unbreakable}"{id? id="{id}"}>
|
</p>
----

We could ask GitHub to change that for li I guess.
Or, as I suggested earlier, find out if GitHub allows to apply per-project CSS.

Ondra, where did you report this issue? If you didn't report it to Asciidoctor, I will.

Hi Sande,

Thanks for your patience. After some digging, it looks like we use the third party tool Asciidoctor [1] for the conversion, which is where the extra `<p>` tags are coming from. I'd recommend opening an issue in the Asciidoctor repo about this. Once changes are made there, we should be able to pull them into GitHub.

Cheers,
Jess
