See original GitHub issue

Describe the Issue

I have seen a few people misinterpreting the (p) in the challenge text as actual syntax. It might be better to remove the parentheses?

Paragraph (p) elements are used to create paragraph text on websites.

Create a paragraph (p) element below your h2 element, and give it the text Click here to view more cat photos.

Your code

Expected behavior

The syntax for the p and h2 elements should be presented the same way.

as the step in question doesn’t have anymore an element name in parenthesis, I am closing this issue as fixed. If this is not correct, please ask to reopen the issue again.
