Better to use <example>.

<example>
 ....
 ....
 ....
</example>

although it looks like you're trying to make a table, so

BMI | bmi (sum, diff) for sib pair
<nop>WaistHip | ...

Here's a better nop method:

(defun emacs-wiki-nop-tag (beg end highlight-p)
  (when (= (- end beg) 5)
    (if highlight-p
        (add-text-properties beg end '(invisible t intangible t)))
    (when (looking-at emacs-wiki-name-regexp)
      (unless highlight-p
        (add-text-properties beg (match-end 0)
                             '(rear-nonsticky (read-only) read-only t))))))

Added to latest emacs-wiki and planner-dev archives.

Thanks for reporting this bug!
