MD009 - Trailing spaces
Tags: whitespace
Aliases: no-trailing-spaces
Parameters: br_spaces (number; default: 0)
This rule is triggered on any lines that end with whitespace. To fix this, find the line that is triggered and remove any trailing spaces from the end.
The brspaces parameter allows an exception to this rule for a specific amount of trailing spaces used to insert an explicit line break/br element. For example, set brspaces to 2 to allow exactly 2 spaces at the end of a line.
Note: you have to set brspaces to 2 or higher for this exception to take effect - you can't insert a br element with just a single trailing space, so if you set brspaces to 1, the exception will be disabled, just as if it was set to the default of 0.

MD022 - Headers should be surrounded by blank lines
Tags: headers, blank_lines
Aliases: blanks-around-headers
This rule is triggered when headers (any style) are either not preceded or not followed by a blank line:
# Header 1
Some text
Some more text
## Header 2
To fix this, ensure that all headers have a blank line both before and after (except where the header is at the beginning or end of the document):
# Header 1
Some text
Some more text
## Header 2
Rationale: Aside from aesthetic reasons, some parsers, including kramdown, will not parse headers that don't have a blank line before, and will parse them as regular text.

MD025 - Multiple top level headers in the same document
Tags: headers
Aliases: single-h1
Parameters: level (number; default 1)
This rule is triggered when a top level header is in use (the first line of the file is a h1 header), and more than one h1 header is in use in the document:
# Top level header
# Another top level header
To fix, structure your document so that there is a single h1 header that is the title for the document, and all later headers are h2 or lower level headers:
# Title
## Header
## Another header
Rationale: A top level header is a h1 on the first line of the file, and serves as the title for the document. If this convention is in use, then there can not be more than one title for the document, and the entire document should be contained within this header.
Note: The level
parameter can be used to change the top level (ex: to h2) in
cases where an h1 is added externally.

MD012 - Multiple consecutive blank lines
Tags: whitespace, blank_lines
Aliases: no-multiple-blanks
This rule is triggered when there are multiple consecutive blank lines in the document:
Some text here

To fix this, delete the offending lines:
Some text here
Some more text here
Note: this rule will not be triggered if there are multiple consecutive blank lines inside code blocks.
