diff --git a/Gerrit comment formatting b/Gerrit comment formatting
 The documentation for Gerrit when it comes to formatting comments is quite lacking. Here is short list created by trial and error and looking at the source code in:
 ./gerrit-gwtexpui/src/main/java/com/google/gwtexpui/safehtml/client/SafeHtml.java

 Lists:
 * List item 1
 * List item 2

 - List item 1
 - List item 2

 Block quote:

 > This will turn into a block quote.

 > This will also turn into a block quote.

 Code blocks:

 This will become a code block because it has a leading space.

 This will become a code block because there is a newline and a space on the next line.
 Do you notice the leading space?

 	This line should also become a code block
 	because it uses tabs. But who does that?
 	
 That's it. Someone should create a markdown plugin :-)
