Is the added spacing a Discourse “feature”? I assume it’s not universal or I think I would have noticed it before now. Is it something that’s triggered by the proximity of an asterisk and other punctuation?

Let’s see:

(Marathon Man) – no italics  
(_Marathon Man_) – asterisks typed in  
(_Marathon Man_) – Italics button used

Doesn’t look automatic. I think I goofed in my post and others just copied-&-pasted and left that extra space in.

_NOTE: The space after the question mark that ends your post was placed by me on purpose to make sure your quote showed up._

**EDIT:** Oh wait … now I see what you’re talking about. When someone quotes the post, the opening parenthesis gets an extra space placed after it. That is weird.

Test.

Yep … spaces auto-inserted. All I did was select text and press “Quote”.

Yes, we’ve discussed in ATMB Discourse’s annoying habit of adding a space before and after italicized text when quoted. Don’t know why it does that.
