New Rule: no-blanks-blockquote

[ntdiary]

Rule details

This rule is triggered when two blockquote blocks are separated by nothing except for a blank line

What type of rule is this?

Warns about a potential problem

Example code

> one blockquote

> same blockquote?

If they are the supposed to be the same quote, then add the blockquote symbol at the beginning of the blank line:
> one blockquote
> 
> the same blockquote

If not, ensure there is appropriate explanatory text between them:

> This is a blockquote.

And Jimmy also said:

> This is another blockquote.

Participation

• I am willing to submit a pull request to implement this rule.

Additional comments

Ref: MD028/no-blanks-blockquote

may be considered an edge case.

This will produce two blockquotes as expected (AST) . So I am not sure what "some parsers" Markdownlint is talking about.

> This is a blockquote
> which is immediately followed by

> this blockquote. Unfortunately
> In some parsers, these are treated as the same blockquote.

I'd like to get a reproduction case where we can see this error in action before deciding what to do. It may true that different parsers do different things and this seems like a pretty extreme edge case that may not warrant a rule.
