+//! Thematic breaks, sometimes called horizontal rules, are a construct that
+//! occurs in the flow content type.
+//!
+//! They’re formed with the following BNF:
+//!
+//! ```bnf
+//! ; Restriction: all markers must be identical.
+//! ; Restriction: at least 3 markers must be used.
+//! thematic_break ::= *space_or_tab 1*(1*marker *space_or_tab)
+//!
+//! space_or_tab ::= ' ' | '\t'
+//! marker ::= '*' | '-' | '_'
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Thematic breaks in markdown typically relate to the HTML element `<hr>`.
+//! See [*§ 4.4.2 The `hr` element* in the HTML spec][html] for more info.
+//!
+//! It is recommended to use exactly three asterisks without whitespace when
+//! writing markdown.
+//! As using more than three markers has no effect other than wasting space,
+//! it is recommended to use exactly three markers.
+//! Thematic breaks formed with asterisks or dashes can interfere with lists
+//! in if there is whitespace between them: `* * *` and `- - -`.
+//! For these reasons, it is recommend to not use spaces or tabs between the
+//! markers.
+//! Thematic breaks formed with dashes (without whitespace) can also form
+//! setext headings.
+//! As dashes and underscores frequently occur in natural language and URLs, it
+//! is recommended to use asterisks for thematic breaks to distinguish from
+//! such use.
+//! Because asterisks can be used to form the most markdown constructs, using
+//! them has the added benefit of making it easier to gloss over markdown: you
+//! can look for asterisks to find syntax while not worrying about other
+//! characters.
