Bold issue

Using the Bold markdown with a space leads to undesired behaviour with the WTSIWYG editor, aswell as the final result.

I am sorry for the late reply. I don't think this is an issue. According to the markdown guide:

To bold text, add two asterisks or underscores before and after a word or phrase. To bold the middle of a word for emphasis, add two asterisks without spaces around the letters.

In your first example, it seems that you didn't close the bold asterisks. Even in github see this. And this is bold text something

Or is it something else I am missing ?

Indeed, Markdown didn't support the bold propertly after adding spaces. I wasn't aware of that, so my bad.

However, that gives out another issue with the Markdown parser or the preview editor. Actually, using the same example above, the italic property shouldn't be applied. For the editor, the bold properties shouldn't be seen through the whole sentence. Here's what Github applies below :

Using a Bold text and not delimiting with with a space makes the text parser go crazy, and only parses an italic.
