Tags: headers, emphasis
Parameters: punctuation (string; default ".,;:!?")
Aliases: no-emphasis-as-header
This check looks for instances where emphasized (i.e. bold or italic) text is used to separate sections, where a header should be used instead:
**My document**
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...
_Another section_
Consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod.
To fix this, use markdown headers instead of emphasized text to denote sections:
# My document
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...
## Another section
Consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod.
Note: this rule looks for single line paragraphs that consist entirely of emphasized text. It won't fire on emphasis used within regular text, multi-line emphasized paragraphs, and paragraphs ending in punctuation. Similarly to rule MD026, you can configure what characters are recognized as punctuation.
