Several people answered this with a variety of answers --
here's the PmWiki "official" answer:

Simply make sure the first character of any subsequent paragraphs
aligns horizontally with (is in the same column as) the first
character of the text of the list item.

For example:

    * This is a list item.

      This paragraph is also part of the list item, because
      the first letter of the paragraph is in the same column
      as the previous list item.

      This paragraph is also part of the list item.

    This paragraph ends the list.
