 ## HTML conversion
 The HTML converter (implemented [here](./convert.go)) generates the following elements:
 * `p` for any sequence of non-empty text lines, where `br` is used to separate them
-* `figure` for preformatted blocks, where the actual preformatted contents are inside a `pre` tag, and the alt text is inside a `figcaption`, if present
-* `blockquote for any sequence of quote lines
-* `h1`, `h2` and `h3` for header lines
-* `ul` for both links and list lines:
+* `figure` for preformatted lines, where the actual preformatted contents are inside a `pre` tag, and the alt text, if present, is inside a `figcaption`
+* `blockquote` for any sequence of quote lines
+* `h1`, `h2` and `h3` for heading lines
+* `ul` for both link lines and unordered list items:
     * Any sequence of non-empty link lines is output as a `ul` element with the `links` class, where each item is an `a` element prepended by a `li` tag
-    * Any sequence of non-empty list lines is output as a `ul` element with the `items` class, where each item is text prepended by a `li` tag
+    * Any sequence of non-empty unordered list items is output as a `ul` element with the `items` class, where each item is text prepended by a `li` tag
 
 For convenience in testing, a standalone version of the converter is provided [here](./standalone/).
