I'm trying to include multiple blockquotes using markdown, but I'm stuck on the syntax for closing out the initial blockquote and starting a new one instead of continuing in the current blockquote and adding additional paragraphs...

=== Current syntax ===

>   Review1
>   -- <cite>Person1</cite>
  
>   Review2
>   -- <cite>Person2</cite>

=== Current result ===

<blockquote> 
  <p>Review1
    -- <cite>Person1</cite></p> 
  
  <p>Review2
    -- <cite>Person2</cite></p>
</blockquote>

=== Wanted result ===

<blockquote> 
  <p>Review1
    -- <cite>Person1</cite></p> 
</blockquote> 

<blockquote> 
  <p>Review2
    -- <cite>Person2</cite></p>
</blockquote>

Put in a comment

>   Review1
>   -- <cite>Person1</cite>

<!>

>   Review2
>   -- <cite>Person2</cite>

or a manual line break

>   Review1
>   -- <cite>Person1</cite>

<br>

>   Review2
>   -- <cite>Person2</cite>

Result

Review1 -- Person1

Review2 -- Person2

    <!> didn't work for me I had to use . The triple dash works with pandoc, but it's not necessary for normal parsing. See [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4823468/store-comments-in-markdown-syntax) – blockloop Jan 28 '13 at 04:49
  • Using JSDoc here. The comment method worked for me (with a full HTML comment), but the line break did not. – Topher Fangio Aug 19 '16 at 16:21
  • This unfortunately doesn't work for Markdown settings that disallow HTML input. – M. Justin Feb 16 '23 at 22:52
