[Mediawiki-l] Numbered lists

[Daniel Barrett]

Numbered list syntax is one of the biggest weak points in this otherwise
fantastic piece of software (Mediawiki).  Any reasonably interesting or
realistic list will break the numbering scheme.  Don't spend time
wrestling with it: just use HTML for numbered lists.

<ol>
<li>...</li>
</ol>

For source code listings, use the GeSHi extension which is FANTASTIC.

Is there a way to add newlines inside <pre> blocks without the numbered 
list knowing?  (I'm making this term up, but say, a "soft newline"?  :-)

)  Or, is there a better way to include source code in a wiki?
