I've found a subtle bug with combination of "bullet lists" and "definition lists". Consider the wikitext below:
*; Item 1 : description for item 1 *; Item 2 : description for item 2
The rendered HTML is that the second definition has no bullet before it. There are two workaround: 1. Putting one line between them *; Item 1 : description for item 1
*; Item 2 : description for item 2
2. Separate definition and description on two lines: *; Item 1 : description for item 1 *; Item 2 : description for item 2
But #1 and #2 have different rendered aspects!
Of course, there's also the trivial workaround of using triple-single-quotes ('''Item 1''') and shift the second line inwards. But this is that terrific!
Anyway, this bug is very subtle.
Have a nice day

Sorry, typo error. I meant "this isn't that terrific!"
