In Wikitext headings are marked up between multiple = characters and are separated from the text using new lines. When breaking the text into sentences, wink-nlp doesn't consider the heading to be a separate sentence.

const text = `He spoke of a five-year freeze in domestic spending, eliminating 
tax breaks for oil companies and reversing tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans, 
banning congressional earmarks, and reducing healthcare costs. He promised the 
United States would have one million electric vehicles on the road by 2015 and 
be 80% reliant on \"clean\" electricity.\n\n\n==== LGBT rights ====\nOn October 
8, 2009, Obama signed the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes 
Prevention Act, a measure that expanded the 1969 United States federal hate-crime 
law to include crimes motivated by a victim's actual or perceived gender, sexual 
orientation, gender identity, or disability.On October 30, 2009, Obama lifted the 
ban on travel to the United States by those infected with HIV, which was celebrated 
by Immigration Equality.On December 22, 2010, Obama signed the Don't Ask, Don't 
Tell Repeal Act of 2010, which fulfilled a key promise made in the 2008 
presidential campaign to end the Don't ask, don't tell policy of 1993 that had 
prevented gay and lesbian people from serving openly in the United States Armed 
Forces. In 2016, the Pentagon also ended the policy that barred transgender 
people from serving openly in the military.`;
const doc = nlp.readDoc( text );

console.log( doc.sentences().itemAt(2).out() );

The output for this was:

==== LGBT rights ====
On October 8, 2009, Obama signed the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, a measure that expanded the 1969 United States federal hate-crime law to include crimes motivated by a victim's actual or perceived gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.

The expected outcome would be that ==== LGBT rights ==== and the rest of the text are in two separate sentences. This might be too specific a use case to actually solve for.

Should this be raised in https://github.com/winkjs/wink-eng-lite-model instead?
