Template #4 Issue #1
May 27, 2017
Static text page. Should generate IV.
!! !!
1) Pay attention to the sample templates.
2) From rules: >>> You must make sure that your template only generates IV pages for articles and !!!does not affect service areas of the website!!!, as well as any other sections unsuitable for IV.
3) I haven't seen confirmed issues like this. Proofs?

It seems that this is not an issue
Declined by admin
As for now, we have a simpler rule: if there are interactive elements ('contact us' form) => no IV. Otherwise, service pages are optional.
Template #4 Issue #2
May 27, 2017
Original page if opened in desktop browser contains several video fragments that are loaded dynamically and can't be translated into IV. Thus IV should not be generated.

Template #6 Issue #1

This is meta-article. It contains links to other articles in form of clickable areas over the image. This can't be translated to the IV.

Original page contains one element
Анон Михалыч
These are two different quotes. I don't think this should be an issue.
Declined by admin
While it is not critical, it could be nice to address it in a future revision of the template.

Template #19 Issue #1

I know I already submitted it, sorry. This is a static page in my opinion
Declined by admin
It can be considered a service page.
Template #19 Issue #2
Jun 18, 2017
this should be an IV in my opinion. no essential content is missed and I rendered it as a link
!! !!
And if the video does not work, we will publish a link to it, right?

I believe, this is an unsupported.
Declined by admin
Not sure what you guys are talking about, but unsupported videos should lead to not generating IV.

In this case there is some other unsupported widged where no IV should generate either.
Template #19 Issue #3
Jun 18, 2017
The youtube embed can be converted to iframe and the IV will be successfully generated
!! !!
It doesn't work on site. We will now correct all errors of the site developers?
Declined by admin
The article is from 2010, it appears that the website doesn't use this formatting now, and the primary scope of the contest is to cover future and currently relevant articles from the web.

Template #28 Issue #1

Bad formatting for list in blockquote
Анон Михалыч
I want to look into eyes of the man that is using <li> elements outside of the list =).

That's some exceptionally bad formatting.
Accepted by admin
Анон Михалыч
First of all - this page contains <li> elements outside of list. Using <li> elements without enclosing <ul> or <ol> element is not a valid html markup. The fact that this page looks normal in browser is only a matter of luck - browsers do their best to fix invalid markup on sites.

While this can be fixed (and it is fixed in the reporter's template) this is an isolated case of editor's mistake. It is not likely that there is more than one page with this kind of markup. Usually the site uses proper list markup (even within blockquote) which is processed properly, i.e.:
https://rockpapershotgun.com/2017/06/08/playerunknowns-battlegrounds-week-11-patch-released

There are an infinite number of ways one can mess up an article's markup and it's not template's duty to fix these errors (it's impossible in general for obvious reasons). Template should process valid markup properly. Therefore i think that this issue should not have been accepted.
Declined by admin
We agree. This is a one-off case of invalid markup in the source and no template can possibly account for all the various ways one could mess up HTML code. The template is now restored.
