Or some help/formatting guides

If that's not coming soon, can we have clearer formatting guidance, perhaps some text near the text input box? Even a list of things that work would be helpful (e.g. blogger.com's "You can use some HTML tags, such as < b>, < i>, < a>*" e.g. here, is helpful.)

  • I added a space after the < otherwise it wouldn't display.
