  This Wiki article describes how to strike out text in a forum post:

  I cannot explain why <strike> and <del> are not supported. You must use the <span style> tag. For example:

  <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">hello world</span>

  Thanks, Richard. I guess <strike> is gone because it's not in HTML5, but that doesn't explain <del> not working. Oh well...
