MD027 - no-multiple-space-blockquote

Description

This rule is triggered when blockquote lines contain more than one space after the blockquote marker (>). The standard format requires exactly one space between the > and the content.

Rationale

Extra space has no purpose and does not affect the rendering of content. Using a single space keeps the source clean and consistent.

Examples

Invalid

>  This is a blockquote with bad indentation
>  there should only be one.

Valid

> This is a blockquote with correct
> indentation.
