-  Ardour divides operations up into those that operate on a single point
-  in time (Split being the obvious example) and those that operate on two 
-  points (which can also be considered to be a range of sorts), Separate 
-  is a good example of this.
+  Editing operations in Ardour either operate on a single point in time 
+  (<kbd class="menu">Split</kbd> being the obvious example) or on two 
+  points (which can also be considered to be a range of sorts), <kbd
+  class="menu">Separate</kbd> is a good example of this.
 </p>
 <p> 
   Most operations will operate on the currently selected region(s), but if 
   no regions are selected, the region that the mouse is in will be used 
   instead. Single-point operations will generally pick a set of regions to 
-  use based on the following rules:</p>
-<ol>
-  <li> If the edit point is `mouse':
+  use based on the following rules:
+</p>
+<ul>
+  <li> If the edit point is `mouse', then
     <ul>
-     <li>if the mouse is over a selected region, or no region, use all selected regions.</li>
+     <li>if the mouse is over a selected region, or no region, use all selected
+     regions, or</li>
      <li>if the mouse is over an unselected region, use just that region.</li>
     </ul>
   </li>
   <li> For all other edit points
     <ul>
       <li>
-        use the selected regions <strong>and</strong> those that are both
-        under the edit position <strong>and</strong> on a selected track, 
+        use the selected regions <em>and</em> those that are both
+        under the edit position <em>and</em> on a selected track, 
         or on a track which is in the same active edit-enabled route group
         as a selected region.
       </li>
     </ul>
   </li>
-</ol>
-<p>The rationale here for the two different rules is that the mouse edit point is special in that its position indicates both a time and a track; the other edit points (Playhead,Marker) indicates only a time.</p>
