Thank you for pointing out the typos in that article. I will open a pull request to make the necessary corrections ASAP.


edit: BTW, the double dot is the result of Github MarkDown code translating an asterisk * as text formatting code (italics) instead of displaying it as a character.


edit 2: OMG. This is a far bigger issue than first anticipated. There are 146 asterisks in the document and at least a third or more need to be escaped to show up as characters in the docs.

Feel free to comment or add feedback in the PR #3305 , or just have a look at the resulting Github file view:

You are more than welcome to tell me if there is something I have missed or overdone by adding backslash as escape code for the asterisks.

Sorry for the commit update noise, I am not familiar enough with verifying where asterisks need to be escaped and where they can be left alone in MarkDown tables, on a daily or weekly basis.

Looks good!

Thanks. I was slightly worried for a moment, seeing that the bing.com and www.bing.com URLs had changes when they did not need any.

@beerisgood : As you can see, the PR Windows/Privacy: change formatting code to text #3305 has been accepted, hopefully solving the issues you pointed out in your original comment. The changed page may take a few days to migrate to the docs.microsoft.com site, but we can consider your request for improvements accepted and dealt with as far as I can see, but feel free to open a new issue ticket if there are other issues to solve in a similar manner. 👍

I can confirm that the website issues are fixed.
Thanks guys

Thank you for replying back. I just revisited the page and found 1 line I missed in
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/privacy/windows-endpoints-1809-non-enterprise-editions#windows-10-pro

.tlu.dl.delivery.mp.microsoft.com/

Looks like I need to make a small PR to solve that one as well, there must be an unescaped asterisk before & after that line.
The tell-tale indication is that this URL is in cursive text, whereas the rest of the URLs are not.
