Protection Request
editI feel this template should be protected from edits by non-registered or newly registered users. Does anyone else agree? --Anthony5429 00:32, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Norwegian interwiki
editCould someone change the Norwegian interwiki from Mal:Refbegin to Mal:Refend? KristofferAG (talk) 18:08, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
- Not easily since both refbegin and refend share a documentation page here, Template:refbegin/doc, which contains all interwikis. If it's particularly important then there's the somewhat established option to change the documentation page of this template to a soft redirect, which can then have specialized interwikis.

Remove the </dl>
tag, it is not a valid tag.

- This is not a good idea: in the first place
{{refend}}
pairs up with a previous{{refbegin}}
, and{{refbegin}}
opens a<dl style="text-indent: -3.5em;">
and all HTML tags should be properly closed (unless they are self-closing such as<br>
); secondly, it is a valid tag (see here) and has been since the start (HTML 1.0). --Redrose64 (talk) 12:26, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
DL tag in refend
editI have a wiki on my corporate network. When I use this template it produce the html code for </dl>: <dl>.
Basically, how does {{refend}}
know that {{refbegin}}
had the indent parameter?
DarkFrog (talk) 14:22, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
- It doesn't.
{{refbegin}}
generates either one or two opening tags: there is always a<div>
, and there might also be a<dl>
(this occurs when|indent=
is given a non-blank value).{{refend}}
always generates two HTML closing tags:</dl>
</div>
. The presence of the</dl>
when there may not have been a<dl>
is essentially harmless - it takes advantage of a quirk of HTML whereby a closing tag for which there is no opening tag is effectively ignored. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:19, 28 October 2011 (UTC)- But my problem is that
</dl>
is displayed in the output. When I check the source I see the escape code: <dl>. What could be causing that? And I see it another templates. -DarkFrog (talk) 22:13, 17 November 2011 (UTC)- That means
</dl>
is not on the list of permitted HTML tags in your configuration. All non-permitted tags are converted to text. — Edokter (talk) — 22:34, 17 November 2011 (UTC)- I went ahead and set $wgRawHtml = true; But to no avail. Can I post a screen shot someplace to show what is happening? --DarkFrog (talk) 15:32, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
- That means
