In quickbook 1.7 onwards, you can nest paragraphs in lists by separating them with blank lines:

* List item 1, paragraph 1

  List item 1, paragraph 2

* List item 2, paragraph 1

  List item 2, paragraph 2

Sometimes the wiki-style list markup can be tricky to use, especially if you wish to include more complicated markup with the list. So in quickbook 1.6, an alternative way to mark up lists introduced:

[ordered_list [item1][item2]]

is equivalent to:

# item1
# item2

And:

[itemized_list [item1][item2]]

is equivalent to:

* item1
* item2
