End punctuation #26

Closed brandonkal closed 4 years ago

brandonkal commented 5 years ago

A heading like "8. Do step eight" throws an error. I assume the intent was to catch the character when used as sentence punctuation. This is also an issue with Google styles.

It's worth noting that this doesn't "throw an error"; it's a warning-level rule. There's also an open issue to clarify this point in the guide.

In any case, the "fix" here is quite simple: remove 0-9 from the character class.
