As a software developer, readability of the source code is important to me, so I naturally put each on a separate line, and sometimes even put a blank line in between them. However, this results in a bunch of newlines being output into the article when I preview or publish. It doesn't seem to matter where in the code I put the definitions, I still get the newlines.

Is there any way to prevent those newlines from showing up? Any way to tell the wikitext parser "process this section of wikitext, but don't render it into the output"? My google-fu is failing me right now. If you're a developer, a good approach would be to use Help:Lua. Wikitext is a never going to be readable if you use parser functions that add "programming"  behaviour to wikipages.

The alternative is either html comments or tags... .
