+A single newline
+generally has no effect on the layout.
+These can be used to separate
+sentences within a paragraph.

+and improves the ''diff'' function
+(used internally to compare
+different versions of a page).
+But an empty line
+starts a new paragraph.
+When used in a list, a newline ''does'' affect the layout ([[#lists|see below]]).
