-> Doing this myself and noted that [[markdown]] down does not allow the use of block level elements directly and thus, cannot switch the `span` suggested above for `div` in changing block level elements. Perhaps the *correct* thing to do here is create a template **but** a workaround I found useful was to over-ride the `inline` nature of the `span` element, as follows
- .align_right { display: block ; text-align: right ; }
-> you may also like to remove the padding and margins since they will be provided by the enclosing block.

For example, I want to create a paragraph (with markdown text) which is right aligned, and so add the following

+>> This is my text with [a markdown link](/)
+>> </span>
