That's because articles allow full usage of html tags (I believe) -- e.g. adding tables, using different fonts/colors/text sizes/multimedia if need etc -- but comments use the markdown syntax, which is much more convenient and easy to learn for the purposes of easy commenting/quoting text.

I think despite the discrepancy, the choices are good for their respective purposes.

So how do I fix the OP?

Apparently, somebody edited the post or it edited itself. Weird.

I have it on good authority that posts don't edit themselves (next time, please use HTML or 'Insert/edit link' button in the article editor).
