Description
Bold generally should not be allowed to have line breaks in between them, or have whitespace on the inside, or they'll be treated as literal asterisks. So for example:
```
Our bold text
```
Results in:
```
**Our bold text\n **
```
Which will not render in bold with most markdown interpreters.
Instead we should move trailing line breaks outside of the asterisks:
```
**Our bold text**\n
```
and end and re-start bold for if it's not trailing, eg:
```
Our multiline
bold text
```
to
```
**Our multiline**\n **bold text**
```
