Well, while I was figurin' all this out, I found a bug. Check out http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandbox. Edit the page, and insert a space at the beginning of the first line, then save. Now edit the page again, and put the disappearing space back and try to pad the top of the page with a bunch o' blank lines, then save again. Go back into edit, and the blank lines and space have disappeared. It appears Wikipedia doesn't like preformatted text so long as it's at the top of a page or with no text above it.
No bug. On saving, it removesblank lines and spaces at the beginning and end of the article.Leading blank lines (and the ones at the end, too) look ugly, and removing them saves disk space ;-)
