In an effort to make our questions easy to read, we use Markdown to format and style text.
So, what is Markdown anyway? Github gives us a great definition:
Markdown is a way to style text on the web. You control the display of the document; formatting words as bold or italic, adding images, and creating lists are just a few of the things we can do with Markdown. Mostly, Markdown is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like
#or*.
Headers
# This is an <h1> tag
## This is an <h2> tag
### This is an <h6> tag
Emphasis
*This text will be italic*
_This will also be italic_
**This text will be bold**
__This will also be bold__
_You **can** combine them_
Lists

I think you should use an `x` element here instead.
