This doesn't help.  Nor does playing around with whitespace in the above
regexp (via customize).  Perhaps it's because the same function
(emacs-wiki-markup-list-or-paragraph) deals with lists and blockquotes? 
The resulting markup doesn't contain any list:

<blockquote>
<p>
   The best known risk factor is the C677T polymorphism in MTHFR, which
   is quite common but is a risk factor in some populations (the
   knockout mouse does NOT have any NTD). Regarding this polymorphism -
   in Dutch studies the TT frequency is 8.4% (9.1% in meta analysis all
   international studies).  In NTD cases, 12.7% (17.4% average in
   trials), 15.7% in mothers and 10% in fathers. ORs are 1.5 [95% CI

<p>
0.7-3.1] for patients, 1.9 [1.1-3.3] in mothers and 1.1 [0.5-2.4] in
   <blockquote>
<p>
   fathers. in some other populations there is no association.
   Lots of the other gene based triad or case-control studies have
   looked at folate genes- for the not very good reason that folic acid
   prevents a proportion of NTD. so in term of known genes i cant
   really say a lot.

The line begining 0.7 doesn't get "enclosed" in <p> or anything else. 
I'm sorry my lisp isn't good enough to propose a solution.  For now, I
can refill the paragraph.  But generally, a lot of my wiki files contain
quotes from various emails (I use them to document what I've done/am
doing for colleagues, and often don't view the html files myself).  And
a good many of these quotes will contain lines beginning with decimal
numbers, so it would be useful (for me) if fixed.  But not urgent.

Thanks for a wonderful package, Chris.
