What is the correct syntax for Obsidian callouts and embeds?

Obsidian callouts use the syntax > [!type] and embeds use ![[Note]]. This Skill formats these elements accurately, ensuring your personal knowledge management system correctly renders callouts and embedded content.

Obsidian embeds and wikilinks break when standard markdown editors alter Obsidian-specific syntax. This Skill prevents formatting errors by correctly preserving [[wikilinks]], ![[embeds]], and block references during note creation and editing.
