The line break in the below example does not show up on my browsers (chrome, ff), adding <br> fixes it.
However, if a line ends with closing punctuation and the next line of the same paragraph starts with an ellipsis, you need to bring the ellipsis up to the previous line to join it into a four-dot ellipsis:
I turned around.
... That's when I saw her.
should be proofed as:
I turned around.... That's when I saw her.

If you want to display monospaced pre-formatted text, the <blockquote> markup is the wrong thing to use in the wiki. You can start each line that you want preformatted with a single space, or use the <pre> element. Both display thus:
I turned around. ... That's when I saw her.
