Edit Syntax Regex for Wikimedia

This topic contains the syntax rules to convert TML to/from Wikimedia syntax. See EditSyntaxPlugin for format description.

Note: Do not update this topic unless you are familiar with RegularExpression syntax. Make sure to create proper pairs, so that an edit roundtrip results in the same text, including whitespace.
