Actually, the tilde ('~') is only used in front of a WikiWord to keep
the parser from recognizing it as a link. If you want normal wiki
markup to be ignored by the parser, surround it by three curly brackets,
e.g.,

    This will {{{ __show up as normal text, not bold__ }}}. If I
    don't want this ~WikiWord to create a link, I use the tilde.
