That is because of the way MediaWiki interprets newlines. Every other newline ("enter", as you are calling it) is consumed (disappears). In order to get text to display on a newline, you must use two new lines.

1st line 2nd line, 1 newline

3rd line, 2 newlines

4th line, 3 newlines

5th line, 4 newlines

6th line, 5 newlines

7th line, 6 newlines

If you want a formula, take the number of times you press "enter", divide by two, and round down. That is the number of newlines that will be displayed on the page. A single displayed newline starts the text on the next line. Therefore, if you want a blank line in between, you need to type 4 newlines when editing the page.
